Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Share the base location and route
  • Add an allergy question to crew forms

We set up at the unit base ahead of lunch, out of the way.

A quick pre-order speeds things up.

Step by step

On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, so we time it to your schedule. Long summer days in Rotherfield Peppard, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. We check access and send a quote.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot at the unit base with locations.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch when lunch is called.
  5. We clear up and get out of the way.

Getting ready for the day

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Keep space clear for crew at the hatch
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Rotherfield Peppard: your questions answered

Which station is closest to Rotherfield Peppard?

The closest is Henley-On-Thames station, roughly 3.3 miles away.

Is Rotherfield Peppard close to London?

About 38 miles from central London.

How do you handle allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Can the van come to our wrap?

We do. It’s a great way to end a shoot.

Can you park at the unit base?

Yes, wherever locations agree; we will check the route.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.

How fast is service?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

What happens if it rains?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Crew will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

For planners, venues and organisers

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
