Town GUIDE / Scotland
A Haddington celebration can move between an old-town room, a garden and time beside the Tyne. Describe those parts separately so the catering team can plan the meal rather than guess the setting.
Free enquiries during launch. Up to three quotes; suitable suppliers and replies are not guaranteed.

Haddington / BEFORE YOU ASK
The market town sits on the River Tyne beneath the Garleton Hills. Its High Street and Market Street are connected by traditional wynds and closes, while the agricultural market heritage offers a starting point for discussing seasonal food without promising a particular local supply.
Where your booked room is reached through a close or behind a High Street building, ask the host for the actual receiving entrance and carrying route. Share those details privately with the caterer before agreeing equipment, hot-food service or staffing requirements.
If guests take a Tyne-side walk before eating, allow a return interval and identify the indoor meal location. For a garden reception, arrange a sheltered version of the service with the venue; a public riverside route is not a private catering site.
If you want seasonal ingredients reflected in the meal, ask the supplier what it can provide on the date and what substitutions it uses. Compare portions and full service costs, rather than assuming a connection with Haddington’s market or individual producers.
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.
Build an event brief ↗YOUR FOOD / YOUR WAY
Explore a serving style, then ask suppliers about the actual event in Haddington.
At a booked room or garden, agree hot water, crockery and the time guests will return before the tea service is laid out.
Agree hot and cold portions, setup space and how guests will reach the serving table.
Talk through the kitchen, courses, waiting staff and the pace of a seated meal.
YOUR PEOPLE / YOUR OCCASION
Use the occasion to shape your brief, from the guest count to the timing and facilities.
Discuss the food-carrying route and preparation space early where a historic town-centre setting forms part of your day.
Begin with the people, setting and service you want for a shared celebration.
Consider carrying distance, shelter, handwashing and the indoor alternative.
