- Access and parking
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges

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 are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Collect allergies in advance
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
