The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Ask facilities about access
- Give us break and shift times
- Send allergies to us in writing
We can serve each shift in turn.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
