- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. A lunch-break van visit in Holt End is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.

How to prepare

Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
