Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Step by step

Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Lunchtime bookings in South Acton are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Planning the van’s spot

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • A short walk from the party
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

As a London location, South Acton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
