FAQs for Firgo
Is Firgo too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
How far ahead should we book a party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Will the van fit on our drive?
Generally, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send a photo of the drive and the way in.
What do you need at the house?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we’ll take it from there.
