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 at the time you asked for. On a winter shoot near Kent Street, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.

The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles of Kent Street, and locations in protected landscapes frequently have rules about vehicles.
For shoots in RH13, we just need to know where the van can park.

Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
