Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Send round an allergy question
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Send people out in groups in the cold.
Festive lights by the van look great.

The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:

A winter fair at a school like Ark Paddington Green Primary Academy gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What’s the nearest station to Paddington Green?
Paddington Green has its own station: London Paddington station.
Can you serve in the cold?
Not for the cooking. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.

How early do Christmas dates go?
As soon as you have a date.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
When should we eat?
Whenever suits your party. Plan lighting, as it is dark early.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
