Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.

- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
