Questions from Hinchley Wood
How far is Hinchley Wood from London?
About 13 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you serve after a service at Hinchley Wood Church?
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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can the van park on my drive?
Frequently, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a photo and tell us about gates and branches.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you come to Hinchley Wood?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Hinchley Wood and across Surrey. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you do street parties?
Often, yes. Start the road closure application early.
What the van needs
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A short walk from the party
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. In Hinchley Wood, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
