How it works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. We handle the cooking and serving. A lunch-break van visit in Barcombe is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 3:55pm in December.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Let us know the serving time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Share the shift pattern
- Collect allergies in advance
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
