A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
