How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Sunset in Sun Rising drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Name one person we can call on the day

What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your party is.

A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Mention power and water and we’ll confirm the rest.
