Your questions about fish and chips for the wake in Littleworth
Is Littleworth too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park in Shotover Country Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you come to Littleworth?
We do. We serve events in Littleworth and across Oxfordshire. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can a friend deal with you?
Yes, many families prefer that.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you serve wakes at home?
Yes, if there’s somewhere level and firm to park the van close to the house.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
