Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. In December, it’s dark in Hinxhill by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
