Planning an event and not sure what kind of catering setup you’ll need? At British Event Catering, we know every event is different – whether it’s a small local gathering, a festival or a large corporate function.
That’s why we offer a range of mobile catering options designed to suit any occasion, location, crowd size and taste preferences.
From stylish pop-up food shacks to supreme shacks and rustic event bars, our units are fully equipped and ready to serve delicious food and drinks to your guests.
In this guide, we’ll introduce you to our mobile catering options and help you select the best fit for your event’s needs.
What are mobile catering units?
Mobile catering units are fully equipped, self-contained setups that bring fresh food and drink to any location, whether it’s a festival in the middle of a field or a street corner outside a stadium.
Each unit is fully fitted with all the essentials for on-site catering, including cooking appliances, refrigerators and serving stations. This means guests can enjoy freshly prepared food with quick turnaround times.
Types of mobile catering units we offer
At British Event Catering, we offer a wide selection of mobile catering units designed to suit events of all sizes. Here’s a closer look at the different options available:
Street food pop-up shacks
Our street food pop-up shacks are small, stylish food stalls that can serve freshly made meals quickly. We offer 12 different pop-up shacks, each with its own unique branding, tailored to match the cuisine offered.
You can choose from various food options such as British-farmed 6oz burgers, Mexican tortillas, pizzas, dirty loaded fries, noodles, Greek gyros and fresh doughnuts & coffee.
These shacks are ideal for small to mid-size events, including corporate events, community festivals and office parties. They provide quick, convenient food for guests while maintaining a personal touch, making them a great choice for various events.
Supreme Shacks
Our Supreme Shacks are designed for larger events requiring high-volume food service, such as large-scale festivals or public events.
With the option to hire up to 8 supreme shacks, we can create food courts where guests can enjoy a range of food options. From classic favourites like burgers & fries and British sausages to international street food such as Chinese noodles and German sausages, our shacks cater for all tastes.
Our Supreme Shacks are ideal for large-scale festivals, concerts, sporting events and corporate functions. Each setup includes up to 30 picnic benches, festoon lighting and dedicated staff who will ensure that your guests relax, enjoy the food and have a great time.
Rustic Event Bars
Our premium rustic event bars bring a touch of charm to any event. With five different styles available, these mobile bars can be set up indoors or outdoors to suit your event space.
The bars are fully equipped to serve various drinks, from branded beers and ciders to cocktails, wines, spirits and non-alcoholic beverages.
For larger events, we also offer a 15-ton chiller vehicle to keep drinks perfectly cold throughout the day. The bars are manned by experienced staff who ensure quick, friendly service, and they come with a superb sound system to enhance the atmosphere.

While our street food pop-up shacks and supreme shacks are perfect for creating a memorable dining experience for guests at a wide range of medium-sized events, we also offer concession catering services for larger events that will have up to 35,000 attendees.
With a fleet of 20 food outlets and 5 mobile bars, we have the capacity to handle high volumes of guests, ensuring that everyone at events is served quickly without compromising on quality.
