Takeaway run or book a van?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A fish and chip van or other catering?

What else we do in Coldmoorholme
Coldmoorholme: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at St Mark?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Coldmoorholme?
The closest is Bourne End station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you come to Coldmoorholme?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Coldmoorholme. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
Is grass a problem?
Generally, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We will agree a serving time around your running order.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Can you park near the barn?
Normally, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will agree the spot in advance.

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
