DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What the van needs
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
