FAQs for Haydon Hill
Is Haydon Hill close to London?
About 39 miles from central London.
We’re gathering after a service at Fairford Leys Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Can you park near the barn?
Often, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We will agree the spot in advance.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Do you cover Haydon Hill?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Haydon Hill is within our area and the rest of Buckinghamshire. For a quote, use our quote form.
For event organisers in Haydon Hill
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
Planning the van’s spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A spot near your guests
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
From the hatch
- Cod and chips
- Evening fish and chips
- Curry sauce
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
- Make sure we have someone to call on the day
- Plan bins by the hatch
- Do not forget your suppliers
Sending tables up in turn keeps the queue short.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What you get with us
