Where the van can park in Lower Brailes
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What else we do in Lower Brailes
How the day works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. After-work summer events in Lower Brailes have daylight until about 9:30pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Plan where the queue will stand

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
For event organisers in Lower Brailes
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Questions from Lower Brailes
Is Lower Brailes too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
Do you come to Lower Brailes?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Lower Brailes and across Oxfordshire. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Ask staff to pre-order
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.
