Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the way in
- Service time
- The menu and how many choices
- Any minimum charge
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Damerham
Is Damerham too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
That is up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
