Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Bierton questions
Do you come out to small places like Bierton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van go 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.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before booking.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can you come to the house?
Yes. Send us a picture of the drive or the road outside.
How many people should we cater for?
A rough estimate is enough to start. Your funeral director can help.
Before you choose a spot
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
- Lighting nearby for evening events
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
