Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Step by step
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. For an end-of-day event in Four Elms, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Ensure the van can get in
- Name one person we can call on the day
