Questions from Horsemere Green

Can you serve near the sea around Horsemere Green?

Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.

Do you come out to small places like Horsemere Green?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is grass a problem?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac residents and we’ll explain the options before booking.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

Is there a non-fish option?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Which areas do you serve?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

The process

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your residents can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. With darkness by about 4:00pm in December, winter van visits in Horsemere Green suit lunchtime.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Share the timings for the day

Planning help

Takeaway run or book a van?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

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.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it is not lukewarm by the time it is plated. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

Why book our van in Horsemere Green

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Numbers
  • The minimum booking
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The length of service

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Where the van would park
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.

For planners, venues and organisers

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Planning for dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Fit the visit around routines
  • Count families who are joining in
  • Check the spot with your manager
  • Plan portion sizes with us

Service fits around the home’s routines.

Inviting families makes it even more special.
