Great Coxwell questions
Is Great Coxwell close to London?
About 66 miles from central London.
Do you come out to small places like Great Coxwell?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
What can guests choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
