Planning the van’s spot

- Space for a queue away from paths
- Agreement from the site for a catering van

These are the factors that matter most:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Your choice of menu

What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Expected numbers

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Teddington
Can you come to a school fair in Teddington?
Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Could you trade in Bushy Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can the van park on grass?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Step by step
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. Winter fairs in Teddington are dark by about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; in late May there’s light until about 8:55pm.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
Ask for a quote
Each quote is put together for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.
Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Share last year’s numbers if you have them
- Agree when volunteers will eat
- Display allergens for each stall
- Agree the terms in writing
Have a hard-standing back-up pitch.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Most events have a burger van. A chip van gives visitors something different. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is usually the best value.
Why us?
