FAQs for Wentworth
We’re gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Wentworth?
Longcross station, about 1 mile south of the centre.
Can the van come to Wentworth?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Wentworth. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Generally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
