Common questions in Norton
Can you serve near the sea around Norton?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Residents will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
