About the food

Curry sauce

What happens on the day

There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your Christmas party. We handle the cooking and serving. Plan your Christmas party in Shenley Church End around the dark: sunset is about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Common questions in Shenley Church End

Could you trade in South Loughton Valley park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.

Which station is closest to Shenley Church End?

Milton Keynes Central station, about 1 mile north-east of the centre.

When do you arrive?

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

What can guests choose from?

Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

What time is best for food?

Food early on is normally wise. For lunchtime, we will work to your break.

Will the weather be a problem?

We cook inside the van, so the weather does not stop us. Keep the van close to the door.
