Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:

- The date and when you’d like to eat
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Planning the van’s spot
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Worthy Down: your questions answered
Is Worthy Down close to London?
About 60 miles from central London.
Is Worthy Down too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
How it works
The first sign we have arrived is generally the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. In Worthy Down, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Get permission for the van from the venue
