For children, there is sausage and chips, so nobody needs a separate meal. We’re often asked to cater anniversary celebrations and garden parties and summer get-togethers, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and pie and chips.
Country parties near Woodside suit a chip van: fried fresh and eaten outside. Plan a firm spot in case it rains. We plan the timings around your day, so the food is ready when you want to eat.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Sunset in Woodside drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

Should I sort the food myself?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
