Stafford / BEFORE YOU ASK
A little local detail. A much clearer brief.
Stafford’s Ancient High House provides a timber-framed heritage reference in the town, while Victoria Park sits beside the River Sow in the centre. Choose the actual event venue before comparing menus, staffing and any equipment needed for service.
01
Separate heritage visits from the catering space
If the Ancient High House is part of a group itinerary, establish the visit time and the separate meal arrangements. Ask the booked venue which spaces suppliers may use for preparation, service and clearing.
02
Plan the return from Victoria Park
When guests visit Victoria Park before eating, agree a meeting point and a realistic return time. Tell the caterer whether families or smaller groups may arrive gradually, so the proposed serving arrangement fits the day.
03
Define any outdoor working area
For an event involving the River Sow park setting, confirm whether food is inside or at an authorised outdoor location. Discuss the supplier’s equipment route, available utilities and an agreed alternative with the venue operator.

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.

Ask the supplier to confirm your venue, date, menu and service plan. This guide does not show live availability; suitable replies are not guaranteed.
Who confirms the booking and takes payment?
