Questions from Curdridge
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Peter?
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’ll gather.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, Hampshire included. See all areas.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Parking and the way in
- Your choice of menu
- Distance and any road charges
- Numbers
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Expected numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your party, and we will quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.
