Common questions in Bushwood Area of Leytonstone
Can the van park in Leyton Jubilee Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Bushwood Area of Leytonstone?
Bushwood Area of Leytonstone has its own station: Leytonstone High Road station.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
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.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
Yes. Tell us the lunch time and a contact on the day, and we will work around changes where we can.

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
