How the day works

We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. A lunch-break van visit in Stratfield Saye is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 4:00pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

How to prepare

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
