About The French Revolution

The French Revolution became Oui Creperie when our second van was completed, and now both Citroen H vans are operating most days throughout the year, at our own events, parties, weddings and festivals. We make crepes and galettes- traditional Breton food- galettes are buckwheat savoury wraps- gluten free, dairy free and vegan if required- and the crepes can be as well, on request.

We use organic and free-range produce where possible. Our galettes are wheat & gluten free; and in true French style, both galettes and crepes are finished with butter.

Choose from our simple or more elaborate menu, or we can design a menu together. The food is the reason we're there - but our cool vans and our genuine and friendly staff are things people will remember from your event.

Typical Clients

We will cater for your party, wedding, launch, or promotional event. Our two vans give us good availability and flexibility. From two hour parties, to all weekend events, we can cater for your exact needs.

Would certainly recommend for small events.

Arnold was a pleasure to work with. Despite being left short staffed on the night he was set up in time and dealt with crowds well. We very much enjoyed working with him and will certainly consider the French Revolution for future events. Thanks again.

Thanks, Kieran. It was good to be among the very welcoming people of Littlehampton; and finding myself a one man team on the day, good to be reminded that I can double my speed when required. Best, Arnold

Great service and even more amazing crepes!

Arnold and his colleague provided a great service to our staff and were a pleasure to do business with. There was a couple of hiccups on the day that could not have been helped, but Arnold continued to remain positive and delivered a fabulous service with amazing tasting Crepes to our staff. I would highly recommend The French Revolution Oui! creperie van to anyone and will definitely be using their services again in the future! Thank you!!!

Need to be tasted to be believed!

Arnold and co. provided us a great service. With a good range of vegan and vegetarian options as well as wheat free and gluten free varieties there was something for everyone.
The food proved very popular amongst our clientele, and having tried my first Breton Galette I can say that it has to be tasted to be believed! A new favourite!

Arnold now also holds the Preston Park Velodrome lap record for Crêpe
vans :D

Truly Scrumptious !

Arnold made the whole experience of finding, tasting, booking so personal and easy and then delivered the most amazing food on the day exactly as promised. We were so happy and our guests were delighted with the quality of the food along with the quirky vintage french van that set a great atmosphere. Thank you so much Arnold good luck with the rest of the summer I will not hesitate to recommend the french revolution to anyone looking to hire caterers for their event.

Great company! Delicious food!

I booked Arnold and The French Revolution over a year before our event (wedding party). Since booking I have been looking forward to eating the galettes and crepes. I can wholeheartedly say, it was definitely worth the wait! I'm so glad we made this choice! So many of our guests have complimented us (I'm pretty sure all credit goes to The French Revolution!). A guest was annoyed that we had chosen pancakes for the event... he tried one and loved it! I don't think I can give a higher compliment than that!

The whole service was impeccable & stress free from the first email till they drove off at the end. Reasonably priced for high quality, freshly cooked food, also catered to food intolerance's. The van looks awesome.

Book them!
