Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
A short menu keeps service quick.
Plan cover near the hatch if rain is possible.
Space, access and the venue
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A lit spot if service runs after dark

Fifield questions
Can you serve after a service at All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you trade in Sutherland Grange?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Is it a full meal?
It can be. A portion of fish, chips and peas is a proper meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your event. The frying and serving are down to us. Light matters for evening service: in Fifield, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- We cook to order and serve hot at the time you chose.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Clear the route for the van
- Give us a contact for the day

Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
