Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers

Crockham Heath: your questions answered

Is Crockham Heath close to London?

Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London.

Do you come out to small places like Crockham Heath?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Where will the van go on our site?

That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.

Can the van park on grass?

Generally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

What can staff choose from?

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

How it works

You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. For a staff lunch in Crockham Heath, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
