Book the van in Hartwell
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. After-work summer events in Hartwell have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Plan where the queue will stand

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
What affects the price in Hartwell
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges
- The day of the week
- Access and parking
Larger groups typically cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
