Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
