How it works
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your event. Summer fêtes in Nash Lee 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.

- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.

How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Planning help
Working with your venue
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’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
