How to compare vans

Planners, venues and businesses

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

A chip van compared with other options

FAQs for Kingsfold

Is Kingsfold close to London?

Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Kingsfold?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Is grass a problem?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How much space do you need?

Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Can the van come to our work Christmas do?

We do. Send us your date and site details as early as you can.
