- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Make sure the van can park legally
Plan where the queue stands.
A gazebo by the hatch keeps the queue dry.
The process
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. At midsummer, it’s light in Hound Green until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- First, tell us about your party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.

Hound Green questions
What’s the nearest station to Hound Green?
Hook station, about 3.2 miles south of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Hound Green?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do children eat?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include them in your numbers.
What do you need at the house?
Let us know about power and water at the house, and we’ll say what we need.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How early do summer dates go?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Contact us with your date.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
