Takeaway run or book a van?
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish, perfect with gravy.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. For a staff lunch in Temple, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
