DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Summer events after work in Great Linford have light until about 9:25pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
