Jabberwocky Festival Food Facts
- Ever met anyone who doesn’t like toasties? Exactly. We take that one step further and make toasties that are just awesome.
- We’ve been trading since 2011. We can now just about claim to know what we’re doing.
- We pride ourselves on our “turning up on the day record”. If you have booked us, it will take nothing short of the engine dropping out of the van for us to cancel. Even that quite literally hasn’t stopped us in the past.
- Sticking with the toastie theme, we’re a great option for kids, veggies and gluten free diners.
- We trade locally, so you’re supporting a local business, local producers, attracting local customers – many good things.
- We have a cool van. It’s called the Beast.
- Our toasties have won us awards and we are the NOEA Caterer of the Year 2015.
- All our packaging is biodegradable.
- Toasties leave the hatch at an average rate of 120/hour, making us one of the fastest street food (under 6m) setups around.

What Makes A Street Food Vendor?
For the last few weeks I have been working through applications to join our collective, Scoff. One of he questions we ask in the application form is "Why did you get into street food?". There isn't a right answer, but we were curious to see what motivation people have...
Scoff at the Cask and Bottle, Leamington Spa
Not that we want to overload everyone with exciting news, but seeing as we are now launched it makes sense to keep the momentum going. This time we have let Scoff break the news, but that doesn't mean I can't get excited about it and tell you how all this came about....
