Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Flag any coeliac guests
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. Sunset in Greenhill in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know the serving time
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Planning the van’s spot
We will be honest if a spot will not work, and help find another. The main points are:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
Greenhill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
