About the food

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Put allergy details in writing
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
Step by step
You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. For a staff lunch in Fairlight Cove, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

How far is Fairlight Cove from London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
