Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Do you have allergen information?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

Do you cover Towersey?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Towersey. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Frequently, if the ground is firm and the venue agrees. We’ll check access with you and the venue.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Put the station on your invitation: the closest railway station is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 2 miles north of the centre. For outdoor photos, Snakemoor is close by.

Takeaway run or book a van?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the wedding.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who is not a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.

What happens on the day

You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. At midsummer, sunset in Towersey is about 9:25pm, so the van can serve before or after your sunset photos. Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Planning for dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Talk to us about evening numbers
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Flag coeliac guests early
  • Have a back-up for guests with special diets

Ushers or bridesmaids can send tables up in turn.

A covered route from the marquee to the van helps if it rains.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
