Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Gravy

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Let us know if smaller portions suit
- Involve the kitchen and care team early
- Tell us about residents’ needs in writing
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
Food for residents indoors goes straight in on plates, while it’s hot.
Music from the 1950s and 60s sets the mood.

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Bradwell
How far is Bradwell from London?
Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Bradwell too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you do residents’ portions?
Portion sizes are agreed in advance.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
