Should I sort the food myself?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

When should we book?

The process
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

- First, tell us 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
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

The menu, dish by dish
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.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order.

- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
