Common questions in Bucks Horn Oak
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Which station is closest to Bucks Horn Oak?
The closest is Bentley (Hampshire) station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Can you come onto our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is normally ideal.
Can the van come to Bucks Horn Oak?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Bucks Horn Oak. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
What will facilities need from you?
Sites vary, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
What affects the price in Bucks Horn Oak
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of meals
- The date and time of year
- The minimum booking
- Parking and the way in
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A photo of the space and the way in
Each quote is put together for your staff event. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Corporate buffets are usually cold. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Ask facilities about access
- Find out what documents the site needs
Put bins near the hatch.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
