What else we do in Barford St Michael
Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Ask staff to pre-order
- Send round an allergy question
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.
Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- A quote that spells everything out
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Bookings across Oxfordshire, including Barford St Michael
Step by step
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a staff lunch in Barford St Michael, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:30pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or OX15 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.
