How the day works

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 3:55pm in December, winter van visits in Loosley Row suit lunchtime.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Let us know the serving time

Getting a price

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
