What happens on the day

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Guests generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open. In Rodmersham, a June party has light until about 9:15pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

What the van needs

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • A spot near your guests
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Takeaway run or book a van?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Let your neighbours know
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Check the street’s parking rules
  • Have a back-up for special diets

Keep the queue away from the road.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
