Step by step
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. After-work summer events in St Mary Hoo have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.

- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive

Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
