Questions from Cuddington
What’s the nearest station to Cuddington?
The closest is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Is Cuddington too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your crew, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How much does a fish and chip van for the crew cost in Cuddington?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
What happens on the day
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Cuddington: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal isn’t.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
