How it works

Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. With darkness by about 4:00pm in December, winter van visits in South Warnborough suit lunchtime, while summer visits can run into the evening, with light until about 9:25pm.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

Our booking checklist

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
