Book the van in Linkhill
The process
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your Christmas party. Sunset in Linkhill in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
Getting a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you’ll get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
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.
Planning the van’s spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A short walk from the party
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

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

About the food
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:
- Keep the queue dry
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Collect allergies in advance
- Choose a lit spot for the van
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
