Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

FAQs for Colliers Wood
We’re gathering after a service at St Nicholas: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you trade in Figge's Marsh?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.
Can you park at our house?
Usually, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a photo and tell us about gates and branches.
When should we book for a summer party?
Weekends from May to September are busiest, so ask early.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Do you do street parties?
Yes, with the council’s permission for the road closure. Mention the van in your application.
