How the day works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, timed around your event. Summer fêtes in Quelm Park have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September the light goes at about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.

- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

- A queue area clear of rides and games
- What’s available on the pitch
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Quelm Park questions

Bracknell station, about 1 mile south of the centre.

Do we need to provide equipment?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
