You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
