A fish and chip van or other catering?

A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it is one dish. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Why us?

  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • Bookings across Oxfordshire, including Henley-on-Thames
  • All the chip-shop extras
  • A clear quote before booking
