Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Give us a contact for call-time changes
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
We take our used oil and waste with us.
Pre-orders from the crew help on tight breaks.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Space, access and the venue
If a spot is not suitable, we’ll tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Room for the crew to queue
- Clear of the shot and sound
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
