The closest is Princes Risborough station, roughly 3.8 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like Emmington?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.

What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Send us the timings and numbers.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Put allergy details in writing

- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Ask facilities about access
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
Somewhere to sit outside helps.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
