If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:

  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
  • Let your neighbours know

Keep the queue away from the road if the van is on the drive.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

Space, access and the venue

  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • A short walk from the party
