Choose a starting style. Add the date, guests and details on the next screen before sending.
Porthmadog / BEFORE YOU ASK
Porthmadog has a maritime past and is a departure point for the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland railways. An activity beginning in town may finish elsewhere, so the catering brief should describe the actual food venue rather than only the excursion.
If food follows a railway journey, confirm the current itinerary with the operator and state where guests will be when it finishes. Allow time to return to the meal venue and discuss whether service should wait for the group or accommodate arrivals across a period.
A station or harbour reference can orient guests without describing how catering equipment enters the booking. Ask the host for the working route and facilities, then share exact private instructions directly with the caterer you select before agreeing setup time.
Say whether you want a light pause between activities or a main celebration after them. Ask how staffing, drinks, tableware and later collection differ between a delivered spread and a service team staying on site, especially if guests travel onward after eating.
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.
