Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Check the van can park on site
- Choose a lit spot for the van
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Have a back-up for special diets
Stagger groups so the queue stays short in the cold.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
For event organisers in Shalstone
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A cold buffet in December isn’t much of a treat. Hot fish and chips is. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

- A van that becomes part of the event
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- Hot food handed straight over

Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
