Common questions in Ickenham
What about parking in Ickenham?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We’ll work around it.
We are gathering after a service at St Giles' Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
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.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Does every evening guest need to eat?
That depends on your day. Many couples cater for most of the evening list.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
