FAQs for Akeley
Do you come out to small places like Akeley?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Akeley close to London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Frequently, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
About the food
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
How it works
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first staff wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. A lunch-break van visit in Akeley is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
How to get a price
