Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your care home visit. The frying and serving are down to us. Sunset in North End is around 8:50pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
