Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
- December Fridays go first: book early
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.

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 confirm what we can provide.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Domewood questions
Do you come out to small places like Domewood?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
When do Christmas bookings fill up?
Very early. Fridays in December book up first.
Do you do Christmas markets?
We do. Send us the event details and the pitch information.
