Common questions in Farley Wood

Is Farley Wood close to London?

Roughly 30 miles from the centre of London.

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mark?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Can the van park on my drive?

It depends on the drive and the access. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll advise.

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

What if we only have street parking?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Can the van come to Farley Wood?

We do. We serve events in Farley Wood and across Bracknell Forest. Send us your date to check availability.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Parties around Farley Wood are often relaxed garden affairs. A chip van fits right in. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • The date and time of year
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How long we serve
  • Cod, haddock or both

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

How it works

The first sign we’ve arrived is usually the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Sunset in Farley Wood drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Planners, venues and businesses

Having the party at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

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

Allergies and dietary needs

Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Arrange an alternative if needed
  • Tell the neighbours the van is coming
  • Show us where the van would go

After service, we pack up.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
