How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Summer fêtes in Fenny Stratford have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:25pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- You send us the event details and pitch information.
- We confirm availability, our pitch needs and anything the event asks for.
- We set up before the gates open.
- We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
- At the end, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
