What’s the nearest station to Hurstbourne Priors?
Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, about 2.3 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Hurstbourne Priors?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Do you take everything away?

Do you come to Hurstbourne Priors?

Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.

What else we do in Hurstbourne Priors
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Confirm allergies by email
- Send round an allergy question
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
