Questions from Rout's Green
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Rout's Green close to London?
Roughly 35 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What do children eat?
Sausage and chips, normally. Let us know numbers and ages.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Put allergy details in writing
- Show us where the van would go
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in, before the cake.
Finish with the birthday cake.
Space, access and the venue
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
