For event organisers in Findon Valley
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Sunset in Findon Valley 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Let us know the serving time
How to get a price
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
