Broad Street: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Broad Street?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in White Horse Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can we pay by invoice?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is grass a problem?
Normally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- The minimum booking
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The length of service

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

- Where the van would park
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

What happens on the day
The first sign we’ve arrived is usually the smell, about the time the first staff wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. For a staff lunch in Broad Street, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Make sure the van can get in
