How the day works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. In Westmarsh, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:15pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:00pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- Somewhere firm if it rains
- Details of any power or water on site
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
From the hatch
- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Chips
- Cod and chips
