Should I sort the food myself?

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.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

What the van needs

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Firm, level ground close to the home
  • Away from bedroom windows
  • A lit spot for evening service

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
