About the food
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

What else we do in Chaddleworth
DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

What happens on the day
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. It gets dark in Chaddleworth by about 4:00pm at Christmas; park the van where there is good light, and keep the walk short.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

About 56 miles from central London.
Is Chaddleworth too small for a chip van?

What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.

Can you serve in the cold?
Not for the cooking. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
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.
