Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Any minimum charge
- Service time
- Your choice of menu
- How many people are eating
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Where the van would park
- Anything awkward about the way in
It’s easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
For event organisers in Nether Worton
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
- Somewhere firm if it rains
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
