Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • A spot near your staff

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

FAQs for Hangleton

Is Hangleton close to London?

About 45 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you serve near the sea around Hangleton?

Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Who clears up?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Do you have documents for our site?

Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.

What’s on the menu?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Where will the van go on our site?

That’s up to your site, but car parks and yards normally work well.

How soon do we need to book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • The number of meals
  • The menu and how many choices
  • The date and time of year
  • The length of service

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A picture of the parking spot
  • The venue or postcode
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

How it works

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Lunchtime bookings in Hangleton are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Share the timings for the day
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Allergies and dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Send round an allergy question
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Check with facilities where the van can park

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
