Queuing at the hatch is half the experience. People chat, the smell drifts across, and the food arrives hot. Popular choices include curry sauce, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for community events and fairs and visits to care homes and day centres.
In a small place like Bovingdon Green, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Everyone knows what they’re getting, which takes the worry out of feeding a mixed crowd.
These are some of the bookings we take:

What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce

Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you serve after a service at Congregational Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.

Cod or haddock?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
