Common questions in Bagnor
How far is Bagnor from London?
About 54 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Bagnor?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you do smaller portions for residents?
We’ll agree portion sizes with your kitchen or care team.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you come to Bagnor?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Bagnor and across West Berkshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
