Looking after everyone

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Confirm the van can park at the venue
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so we are ready at the agreed time.

Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.

Takeaway run or book a van?

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.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Working with your venue

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Lullington? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

How the day works

We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Winter weddings in Lullington are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:15pm.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Do you have allergen information?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A hog roast is a classic for weddings, but it’s one dish, and some guests do not eat pork. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
