Froyle questions
What’s the nearest station to Froyle?
Bentley (Hampshire) station, about 2.1 miles east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Froyle?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you do festivals?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for visitors are worth planning.
Do you do crew food?
Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.
What do you need on the pitch?
Tell us the pitch size and ground, and we’ll check it works.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Froyle.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Plan crew and volunteer food times
- Display allergens for each stall
- Plan bins near food stalls
- Share last year’s numbers if you have them
Crew food is served at the agreed time.
Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Step by step
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Summer events in Froyle have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

For event organisers in Froyle
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Distance and any road charges
- Service time
- Whether a minimum applies
- Numbers
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What we need to know
These details help us quote quickly:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
