Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often 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 will 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 plan ahead.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few visitors with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Display allergens for each stall
- Share pitch details
- Give us an idea of numbers
- Settle the pitch terms early
Put bins near the queue.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.

- Access and parking
- The length of service

Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Winter fairs in Beaconsfield are dark by about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Share the timings for the day
