Questions from Soberton
Is Soberton too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Soberton from London?
Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac crew and we will explain the options before booking.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Can you work to the call sheet?
We can. Give us a contact for changes, and we will adjust where possible.
Can the van come to base?
Normally, if there’s level, firm ground. Locations will decide where.

Step by step
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. In December, daylight in Soberton ends around 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Clear the route for the van
