Takeaway run or book a van?
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’s crisp.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Before you choose a spot
Plenty of places work for the van, but a few things matter:
- Far enough from set to keep noise down
- A level, firm spot at the unit base
- Space in front of the hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
