Questions from Towersey
Is Towersey too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Towersey?
Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, about 2 miles north of the centre.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac residents when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, 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?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Towersey?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Do you do regular visits?
Tell us how often you’d like a visit.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Residents will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. For a summer visit in Towersey, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden visits easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- We start with a few details about your care home visit.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.

- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Ensure the van can get in
