Burlow: your questions answered

Is Burlow too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Burlow?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we will send a quote.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can the van come to Burlow?

Can the van park on the street?

How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
What if the weather’s bad?

For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
Space, access and the venue
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- A short walk from the party
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
