Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Eyhorne Street
Can you serve after a service at All Saints Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Eyhorne Street close to London?
Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Eyhorne Street?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your party and we will send a quote.
