Do you do street parties?
Yes, with the council’s permission for the road closure. Mention the van in your application.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. 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 nobody has to miss the party.
