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.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. A summer party in Keston stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the 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 the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
Getting ready for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Have a level parking spot ready
