Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
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.
Step by step
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In Neithrop, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 9:00pm and 7:10pm; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Share the timings for the day
