How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your residents, which we agree with you beforehand. For a summer visit in North Lee, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
