Temple Valley questions
How far is Temple Valley from London?
About 58 miles from central London.
Is Temple Valley too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
How does payment work for businesses?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

What else we do in Temple Valley
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 typically the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
