Common questions in Droxford

Is Droxford close to London?
About 58 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Step by step
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Sunset in Droxford in late December is about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
