Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Common questions in Sutton
Do you come out to small places like Sutton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Michael: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Can you do something for the children?
Most children go for sausage and chips. Tell us how many children to expect.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
How early do summer dates go?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Do you need power or water from us?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Can the van come to Sutton?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Sutton. For a quote, use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Make sure the van can park legally
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Have bins and napkins by the van.
A few lights around the van look great.

How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Sunset in Sutton is about 9:00pm in late May and 9:30pm in late June. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.
- We start with a few details about your party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
