For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Care home fish and chips in Shenley, cooked to order
For many residents, fish and chips brings back seaside trips and Friday nights. A van in the car park makes mealtime an occasion. Typical bookings include a monthly fish and chip day and birthday treats for residents, with sausage and chips, mushy peas and pie and chips.
Near Shenley, residents may not get out much, so a chip van visit is a special day. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

FAQs for Shenley
Is Shenley too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Shenley?
Milton Keynes Central station, about 1.6 miles north-east of the centre.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
