The Event
Catering

Below is the 2025’s Checkpoint menu

(subject to availability – any substitutions will be as close as possible; the website will be updated near to the event).

As you can imagine, it is impossible to cater for every need, however we strive to feed as many of you as possible.  With this in mind, please read this section carefully as it now includes vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and dairy free options (noted where available). Supplies of some of these items are based on the number of people who have been in touch, so it’s important that we know you would like to use these in advance!  Vegetarians / Vegans – please check on SiEntries that you have ticked the relevant box on your entry.  Gluten / Dairy Free?  Please get in touch so you are included in our calculations!  Other dietary need? Get in touch, at the very least we can give you full ingredient information.

As always, we are also running our unique food parcel delivery service – if you have a special dietary requirement not covered by what’s available and would like to use this service, or need further information about the food provided anywhere on the event, please get in touch as soon as possible. Basically you can bring a ‘packed lunch’ for any/all of the roadsides (not inc. Hill Inn) and we’ll deliver them so you’re not carrying extra food.  Please hand your food parcels in at registration or direct to the kitchen staff, and make sure they are clearly marked with your name, and which checkpoint they need to be delivered to.  

Need more info? Get in touch asap via catering@fellsman.org.uk

You are respectfully reminded at this point not to forget to pack your mug (not just for drinks, also for beans, soup, bean stew… so make it a decent sized / sturdy one, capable of holding hot food / liquids… or even two… 😉) and an eating implement (spoon / fork / a handy combo…). Choose wisely…

Checkpoint Catering Notes, including allergen info and dietary alternatives. 

All roadside checkpoints will have cartons of oat and soya milk for those who need alternatives.  We hope to have at least one flavour of ‘Voom’ isotonic drink at each roadside, and some Voom energy bars here and there. 

Biscuits are from Aldi. The Bourbons & Cookies n Crème are vegan.  The Ginger Nuts and Oaties may contain milk. The Fig Rolls, milk/dark Choc Digestives & Custard Creams all contain milk. The Jaffa Cakes contain egg and milk. Each Roadside will have a limited supply of gluten free / vegan biscuits for those who have let us know in advance (even those that don’t have biscuits) 

The flapjack mentioned is vegetarian, contains oats/milk, may contain eggs, nuts, soya.  It is unlikely there will be a specific GF alternative.  The Brownies are vegetarian, contain wheat/milk/eggs, and may contain nuts.  The fruitcake is kindly supplied by Taylors, and contains wheat, barley, eggs, milk, nuts, and alcohol.  The choc bars are from Aldi – Dreemy, Jive, Roar, Titan – all vegetarian, there will be a selection at each CP mentioned.  Chocolate is Aldi (Everyday essentials) – the dark is Vegetarian (but only ‘may contain milk’ so technically Vegan). The milk and white are both Vegetarian as they contain milk.  

The malt loaf mentioned is from Aldi and vegan.  There will not be a specific GF alternative. 

All the bread products on the event are described as Vegetarian but have no allergens listed other than gluten / soya, making them technically Vegan.  Wherever there is a bread product there will be a limited amount of a similar GF bread product for those who have let us know in advance. 

All the baked beans on the event are vegan and gluten free. All sauces are vegan / gluten free.  All butter at checkpoints is vegan. The tortilla chips / crisps are vegan and gluten free. The grated cheese is GF, as are the raisins.

Where mentioned, Fresh Fruit will be a mix of apples, easy peel oranges, bananas and honeydew melon. 

The cheese/onion rolls are vegetarian and contain milk/garlic. The sausage rolls contain milk/garlic. The tomato soup is vegetarian, contains milk and gluten. The crispy onions are vegan but contain gluten, apologies. The vegetable soup is vegetarian but contains gluten. The ‘Marmite’ is Vegan and Gluten Free. The hotdogs are gluten free. 

The Bean Stew is completely Gluten Free and Vegan. Every ingredient has been double checked!  

The rice pudding is Gluten Free and Vegetarian, contains milk. The hot chocolate is GF but contains milk. 

There may well be more gluten free/vegan options than mentioned below, please ask at each destination upon arrival if you require GF or Vegan (eg Dent will have some vegan ‘sausage rolls’, Redshaw will have some vegan ‘hotdogs’, where there isn’t a ‘like for like’ alternative available there will be as a minimum some tins of beans…). Hopefully there will be some vegan Sheese where possible. We respectfully ask that only those who ticked the relevant boxes when entering access these options, to ensure enough to go round, as supplies of these will be based on the number of entrants who have informed us in advance. 

*Please note the catering on the Fellsman is predominantly nut free, though May Contain Traces. Nothing nut based is knowingly provided at checkpoints or Threshfield.
