A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips

Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Common questions in North Gorley
Do you come out to small places like North Gorley?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Holy Ascension: can you come?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
