Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Long summer days in Stoke Hammond, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it is nearer 7:05pm.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check the route and the unit base and send a price.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with locations.
- We set up at the unit base and fry to order for the lunch break.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the unit base clean.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Clear the route for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Planning help
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Events we cater in Stoke Hammond
It suits short shoots without a full catering unit.
