Hanger Hill: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Church of the Ascension?
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.
What about parking in Hanger Hill?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
What is fish and chip van hire?
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.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. See all areas.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
