Unit Base Catering in Torquay
Unit base catering in Torquay is full crew feeding from breakfast call through to wrap, run from a self-contained mobile kitchen that needs no infrastructure on location. Hot lunches at the truck, craft service on rotation and dietary lists tracked across cast and crew, working to the call sheet rather than to our own timings. Pricing is quote-based, quoted in full before you commit, and covers the food, the equipment and the setup. The cook team is included in that price, and vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options carry no surcharge. We travel to Torquay from our Redruth kitchen, about 2 hours 15 minutes away, and cover it regularly. On site we need a level space of roughly three by six metres and vehicle access — nothing else, no kitchen and no power. Serving usually runs to around ninety minutes, and we agree the timings with you well before the day itself.
Torquay: Torquay sits at the far edge of our Devon coverage, on the English Riviera, with the seafront hotels and Torre Abbey among its function venues.
Popular events around Torquay include hotel events, harbour-side celebrations, and corporate conferences. We cover Torquay and the area around Torquay Harbour, Kents Cavern, and Agatha Christie Mile.

What customers say
“Saltwind delivered us a buffet on Monday for our wedding. The food was absolutely delicious, everybody loved it. Mark and his team were also brilliant, so easy to deal with and went above and beyond. We had one vegan guest and Mark did a separate portion especially for them. Everything else in the main buffet had stickers in If suitable for vegans. Such a great company I’d recommend 100% without hesitation.”
