By late September, sunset in Tonbridge is around 7:00pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

Diets, allergies and planning

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Keep the menu short and the queue moves quickly.

A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.

Planners, venues and businesses

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Next to a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which helps if some guests don’t eat pork.
