Bridgend / BEFORE YOU ASK
Bridgend County includes the shopping and cultural setting of Bridgend, Maesteg in the valleys and the seaside town of Porthcawl. Its official visitor guide presents these as different destinations, so a county-wide request should identify the meal locality early.
If you select this area for an event in Porthcawl or Maesteg, put that town in the brief. Suppliers can then assess the right journey and venue requirements instead of assuming the booking is in Bridgend town.
For an outdoor reception near Porthcawl, agree where food and guests move if conditions change. Ask whether the proposed buffet, mobile kitchen or BBQ needs fixed shelter and what the venue actually allows on its grounds.
A county day out can include several stops, but catering needs one agreed service point and a realistic meal window. State whether the quote should cover arrival refreshments, the main food service or an evening return visit.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
