Cornwall’s food scene — from Padstow restaurants to mobile catering vans at events — runs on reliable LPG. Gas Shack supplies commercial kitchen and catering van gas across the county so service never stops mid-service.
Whether you run a static kitchen or a trailer on the road, choosing the right cylinder size and keeping a spare is essential in peak season.
Restaurant and kitchen propane
High-demand cooking lines often use larger propane cylinders. The 47kg Propane Gas Bottle and 19kg Propane Gas Bottle are proven options for longer service windows. Mid-size needs are covered by the 13kg Propane Gas Bottle. Explore the restaurant & commercial kitchen gas collection.
Catering vans and mobile traders
Mobile caterers need bottles that fit locked cages and travel safely. Many vans use mid-size propane; check your van’s certificate and cage rating. Our catering van gas Cornwall collection and live 13kg / 6kg propane bottles are a practical starting point.
- Book delivery before festival weekends and school holidays.
- Keep a labelled spare cylinder for changeover during service.
- Use trade-friendly ordering via order gas online or contact us for account help.
Gas Shack supports Cornwall hospitality with real, in-stock LPG — propane for kitchens and vans, with patio options if you heat outdoor seating. Browse propane gas bottles or all bottles today.
Keeping Cornwall kitchens online
Seafood restaurants, pasty shops and event caterers cannot afford gas gaps during service. Build a reorder rhythm with Gas Shack — weekly for high-volume kitchens, fortnightly for quieter vans. Confirm cage capacity and cylinder weights before upgrading to 47kg bottles. For mixed fleets that also heat outdoor seating, add patio gas to the same delivery. Local supply from Padstow means faster recovery if a bottle runs unexpectedly dry mid-shift.
Environmental health and insurer expectations increasingly focus on safe cylinder storage. Keep commercial bottles secured, upright and away from cellar stairs or public walkways. Gas Shack can help you plan a sensible spare strategy so you are never more than one cylinder away from finishing service — whether you cook in a Padstow kitchen or serve from a trailer at a Cornwall showground.
Mobile traders should also check event organiser rules on cylinder quantities and segregation. Gas Shack can supply the sizes that fit legal cages on typical Cornwall catering vans, helping you stay compliant while keeping fryers and griddles hot through long service days.
