Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Dadford

Can the van park in Stowe Park and Garden?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Is Dadford close to London?

Roughly 55 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

How do you handle allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Do you do anything other than fish?

There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

What if the weather’s bad?

The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

The process

Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Lunchtime staff treats in Dadford are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.

  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. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Getting a price

Planning for dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Send round an allergy question
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Tell us exactly when each group can eat
  • Let us know about coeliac disease

After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
