Common questions in Jealott's Hill

Which station is closest to Jealott's Hill?

Bracknell station, about 2.8 miles south of the centre.

Is Jealott's Hill close to London?

About 28 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you come to Jealott's Hill?

We do. We serve events in Jealott's Hill and across Bracknell Forest. Send us your date to check availability.

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.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.

Allergies and dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Check the van can park on site
  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
  • Book as early as possible for December

Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.

Crackers on the tables finish it off.

How the day works

You do not need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your Christmas party. The frying and serving are down to us. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Jealott's Hill; light the path to the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

A closer look at the menu

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Should I sort the food myself?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

A chip van compared with other options

Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van means no booking, no travel and no time off site. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

What you get with us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • No surprises in your quote
  • Classic food your guests already know
  • No kitchen needed
