Takeaway run or book a van?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

A closer look at the menu

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

What the van needs

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark

Bishopsgate is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

  • Cod and chips

Step by step

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your staff event. In Bishopsgate, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
