How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Crew usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Sunset in Langley Green is about 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; for dawn calls or late wraps, plan lighting at base.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Give us a contact for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

After service, we pack up and get out of the way.
Pre-orders from the crew help on tight breaks.
