Common questions in Breamore
Is Breamore too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you serve after a service at St Boniface?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
That depends on your day. Many couples cater for most of the evening list, not all.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.

What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. In Breamore, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm, so evening food at about 8:30pm is in daylight in high summer. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it’s dark by about 4:05pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Ensure the van can get in
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

- The number of meals

Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Put bins near the van
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Cater for most, not all, of the evening guest list
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short.
Think about cover by the hatch for wet evenings.
