Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

FAQs for Binfield Heath

Is Binfield Heath close to London?

Roughly 36 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is Binfield Heath too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

When should we eat?

Early in the evening typically works best, before the drinks really flow. For a lunch, tell us your break time.

Which areas do you serve?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Binfield Heath.

How long are you on site?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Is there a non-fish option?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

What happens if it rains?

The weather doesn’t 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’s on the menu?

Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • How easy the site is to reach
  • How far we travel
  • Any minimum charge
  • Your choice of menu

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

Planning help

Should I sort the food myself?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

  • 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
