Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Distance and any road charges
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether a minimum applies
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Let your neighbours know

Keep the queue away from the road if the van is on the drive.
Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

Kingston Gorse: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at St Andrew's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How far is Kingston Gorse from London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Can the van park on grass?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
When should we book for a summer party?
Weekends from May to September are busiest, so ask early.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.
