Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How long we serve
- Access and parking
- The number of meals
- The menu and how many choices
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of the space and the way in

Is Glynde close to London?

Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
How early do summer dates go?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Ask about your date.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Working with your venue
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

The process
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your party. The frying and serving are down to us. A summer party in Glynde stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
