- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier

Questions from Holton
Do you come out to small places like Holton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Holton close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes, if there is a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
When should we book for December?
As early as possible. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
