How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests usually gather round the hatch once service starts. At midsummer, sunset in Old Windsor is about 9:25pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:55pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
