Stanford: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Stanford?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Stanford from London?
About 56 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Can you come onto our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.
Do you work around shifts?
Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
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.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is a favourite in colder months.

- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
