Working with your venue
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Is a fish and chip van right for your shoot?
Long shoots normally need a full catering unit. A van is great for short jobs and crew treats. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
