Common questions in Pitch Green
Do you come out to small places like Pitch Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Pitch Green close to London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Are visitors included?
Yes, and families love joining in.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Is there a non-fish option?
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.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Where will the van park?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.

The process
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Sunset in Pitch Green is around 8:55pm in late May and 7:05pm in late September; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
How to get a price

Where the van can park in Pitch Green
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Away from emergency access
- A clear way in for the van
- A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
What we serve
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Gravy
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Pitch Green?
A seaside afternoon with a chip van feels special, without leaving the home. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- Quick service from the hatch
- A clear quote before booking
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

What affects the price in Pitch Green
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Numbers
- Parking and the way in
- The menu and how many choices
- The minimum booking
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Each quote is put together for your care home visit. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
- 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
