Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. In Tylers Green, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:55pm and 7:05pm; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Keep space clear for residents at the hatch
- Ensure the van can get in
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
