Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
What affects the price in Walberton
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The length of service

- Put bins near the van
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Plan something for guests we can’t cater for

We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so the fryers are hot when you are ready.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.
