Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Show us where the van would go

- Make sure the van can park legally

What happens on the day
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. A summer party in Speedwell stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

- You get an access check and a clear price.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.

Before we arrive

Common questions in Speedwell
What’s the nearest station to Speedwell?
The closest is Aspley Guise station, roughly 2.9 miles away.
Can you serve after a service at Church of Saint Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you do street parties?
Frequently, yes. Start the road closure application early.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
What do children eat?
Sausage and chips, generally. Tell us how many children to expect.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
