- Give us break and shift times

Marston questions
Is Marston too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Marston close to London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.
