Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Plan cover for the queue
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
What happens on the day
You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. December in West Barnes means early darkness: sunset is about 3:55pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
