Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Allhallows
Is Allhallows too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
We are gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Count children separately
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
Have bins and napkins by the van.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
