What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Let your neighbours know
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
We park on the agreed spot and set up, then serve as guests come up.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
For event organisers in Little Woodcote
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
