Denbigh questions
Which station is closest to Denbigh?
Bletchley station, about 0.8 miles south of the centre.
Could you trade in Waterhall Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can staff have lunch from the van?
Of course. Just include them in your numbers.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your residents, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac residents and we will explain the options before booking.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can the van come to Denbigh?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Denbigh is within our area and the rest of Milton Keynes. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In summer, Denbigh has daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden visits easy. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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 usually simpler.
