Looking after everyone
Most events have a few visitors with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Agree who removes waste
- Agree how we’ll be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Offer a choice of traders where you can
- Give us an idea of numbers
At the end, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Information about power and water
- Firm, level ground for the pitch

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
What happens on the day
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Evening events in Wheeler End have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
