How it works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Winter shoots near Putney Vale chase the light, which goes at about 3:55pm in December, 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.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
