Winchfield station, about 1.4 miles south of the centre.
How far is Hartley Wintney from London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes, if there is a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Hartley Wintney.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. A van cooks on the spot. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Why us?
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- A menu almost everyone likes
- A clear quote before you book
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

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. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
