Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

The process
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. In Pinner, a June party has light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We serve hot from the hatch while the party carries on.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.

What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A spot near your guests
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Pinner is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
