Your questions about a fish and chip van for your wedding in Jordans
Is Jordans close to London?
Roughly 23 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at Church of Holy Trinity: can you come?
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.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
