What happens on the day
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. Midsummer parties in Wildhern stay bright until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:10pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Wildhern questions
What’s the nearest station to Wildhern?
The closest is Andover station, roughly 3.1 miles away.
Can you serve after a service at Christchurch?
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 normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
What can guests choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
