These are the factors that matter most:
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
- How many people are eating
- How far we travel
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Details that help

Questions from Kingswood
Do you come out to small places like Kingswood?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Kingswood from London?
About 46 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What can guests choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Will the weather be a problem?
Not for the cooking. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.
Do you do Christmas markets?
We do. Send us the event details and the pitch information.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Kingswood?
A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it is one dish. A chip van gives a choice. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
