FAQs for Peartree Green

Can the van park in Houndwell Park?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you serve after a service at Peartree Green United Reform Church?

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.

Can the van be part of the photos?

Lots of couples ask for a photo at the van. If you’d rather not, we’ll park out of shot where possible.

How many evening guests should we cater for?

It depends on how much was served earlier and when the evening food goes out. Most couples plan for most of their evening guests.

How do you handle allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

When should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

How to compare vans

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Plan bins by the hatch
  • Count suppliers working late
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.

Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the evening photos.

How it works

We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. In Peartree Green, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:10pm, which means evening fish and chips is often served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 4:00pm in December, plan lighting by the van.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

How to get a price

Send us the date, the address or SO19 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
