The super friendly team arrived to set up on time and happily made pancakes (including vegan) for a couple of hours for hungry campers. Lots of delicious toppings and very flexible with combinations. Thoroughly enjoyed by all and highly recommend. Great communication and very helpful with all queries when booking."
