Planning a party in Awbridge

Awbridge is about 3 miles north-west of Romsey, in Hampshire. Bookings in Awbridge come in all shapes and sizes, but the plan is always the same: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order.

For party guests on the train, the closest railway station is Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, roughly 1.5 miles north of the centre. Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of All Saints, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards.

For parties in SO51, we just need to know where the van can park and roughly how many guests. Streets in the area include Romsey Road, Spring Field and Danes Road, and the van can serve a party on any of them with a suitable parking spot.

Diets, allergies and planning

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Ask guests about allergies when they reply
  • A picture of the parking spot helps
  • Have a back-up for special diets

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Your own cake makes the perfect finish.

Organising for someone else?

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

How it works

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. A summer party in Awbridge stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Name one person we can call on the day

How to get a price

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • How far we travel
  • How long we serve
  • Numbers
  • Your choice of menu

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Getting an accurate quote

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: fill in our quote form.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
