What affects the price in Wendover
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Service time
- Any minimum charge
- Your choice of menu
- How many people are eating
Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your party, and we will check the date and send a price.
How the day works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace. A summer party in Wendover stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- We arrive in good time to set up.

- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Wendover questions
We’re gathering after a service at Parish Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
