For farms and rural sites near Hinxhill Park, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it is ready.
Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Consider a pre-order list
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so service starts on time.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
