How the day works
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. At midsummer, events in Chilton Green stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, the pitch needs lighting.

- You hear back on the date and the 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.
