Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.

Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. A summer party in Fairseat stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Access and parking
- The menu and how many choices
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
Larger groups normally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Getting an accurate quote
These details help us quote quickly:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The venue or postcode
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Mention the van to neighbours
We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.
A few lights around the van look great.
