Common questions in Church Norton

Is Church Norton too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Is Church Norton close to London?

About 59 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

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.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.

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.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

For planners, venues and organisers

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Diets, allergies and planning

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:

Send people out in groups in the cold.

Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
