It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.

How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. A summer party in Bunkers Hill stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Give us a contact for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand

About the food
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Put allergy details in writing
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
