Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Bayworth? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In Bayworth, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 9:00pm and 7:10pm; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.
- It starts with your date, numbers and mealtime.
- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
- We park up and cook to order at mealtime.
- We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.
How to prepare
- Ensure the van can get in
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
