Common questions in Kilnwood Vale

Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
- 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
