In a small place like Troy Town, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

What happens on the day

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Collect allergies in advance
- December Fridays go first: book early
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.

Roughly 21 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.

Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. 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 nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
