FAQs for Danesfield
Which station is closest to Danesfield?
The closest is Marlow station, roughly 2.5 miles away.
Is Danesfield 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.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Where should the van go?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Buckinghamshire included. See all areas.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac residents in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For event organisers in Danesfield
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
