Near Barton Stacey, crews may be miles from anywhere to eat, so a van at base is a big help. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Barton Stacey: your questions answered
Is Barton Stacey too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Barton Stacey close to London?
About 60 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Can you park at the unit base?
Yes, on level ground at base.

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can the van come to our wrap?
Yes. A chip van suits a relaxed wrap party.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
