Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
A chip van compared with other options
Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. A van keeps it relaxed, and guests eat where they like. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease

Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short.
A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.
