Inclusions and menu notes

The BBQ Street Food Menu states that all items are served with napkins, cutlery and condiments. The Fable menus have their own inclusions above; your written quotation confirms the complete catering and service plan.

Meat and all fresh produce are locally sourced.

Discuss current dish availability and any menu changes before booking. Staff, table clearing, rubbish collection, equipment and event hire should be expressly listed where required, rather than assumed from a general menu or photograph.

Food intolerances and allergies

Fables caters for agreed food intolerances only. We do not cater for food allergies.

Please discuss any food intolerance with us before booking so we can confirm whether we can accommodate it. A request is included only once Fables has expressly confirmed the arrangements; entering it on a form does not confirm acceptance.

Our kitchens and mobile catering units handle allergens, and cross-contact can occur. We provide ingredient and allergen information, but do not guarantee allergen-free food. Vegan options are not necessarily suitable for someone with a food allergy.

Coeliac disease requires separate consideration and must not be treated as an ordinary intolerance request. Do not assume our food is suitable.

Confirm the agreed intolerance requirements and portion numbers on your final booking form, and tell us promptly about any changes. Please do not include guests’ names or medical histories.

Confirm food quantities and serving times

Fables provides the agreed quantity of food for up to the agreed service period. Service ends when the booked quantity has been served or the booked service period ends, whichever happens first. The booking does not include unlimited food or automatic extra serving time.

Send your preferred menu, guest numbers and proposed serving time with your date and venue postcode. An enquiry does not reserve the date. Fables will check availability and confirm the arrangements in the quotation and booking documents.

Good questions before booking

Your BBQ catering questions.

Do we choose from every Fable menu together?

Fable 1, Fable 2 and Fable 3 are separate menus with their own published starting prices and choices. Tell us which menu you are considering and ask us to confirm any changes you want in the written quote.

Do four street food choices mean four servings per guest?

The published street food instruction is to choose four menu options. It does not state four servings per person. Your written quotation confirms the food quantity and service arrangement for your guest numbers.

Are the street food sides and desserts included in the Fable prices?

No automatic inclusion should be assumed. The separate street food menu lists its sides at £3 per person extra and one dessert choice at £3 per person extra. The Fable menus list their own inclusions; we confirm your complete selection in the quote.
