For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Plan something for visitors we cannot cater for
- Tell us about the pitch
- Agree who removes waste
- Display allergens for each stall
We set up before visitors arrive, at the agreed time.
A sign at the entrance tells visitors hot food is available.
Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we serve

Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
