Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Send round an allergy question
- Let us know about coeliac disease
We can serve each shift in turn.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The date and time of year
- The length of service
- Your choice of menu
- The number of meals
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of where the van would go
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about

Why choose a fish and chip van in Abbotts Barton?
