Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Diets, allergies and planning
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so service starts on time.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

How it works
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. For a staff lunch in North Heath, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Make sure the van can get in

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
