Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. 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.
Organising for someone else?
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips

Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
