Fresh fish and chips in Heath Common
What happens on the day
On the day, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your staff event. After-work summer events in Heath Common have daylight until about 9:20pm 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.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Clear the route for the van

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.
What you get with us
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- A clear quote before you book
- No kitchen needed
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

What we need to know
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Anything awkward about the way in
