Questions from Sutton-under-Brailes
Is Sutton-under-Brailes too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your residents, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Where will the van park?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
