About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Flag any coeliac guests
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Paper hats and crackers on the tables add to the fun.
A chip van compared with other options
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why book with us
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
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.
Little Sandhurst questions
What’s the nearest station to Little Sandhurst?
The closest is Sandhurst station, roughly 0.6 miles away.
Is Little Sandhurst close to London?
About 32 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do.
What can guests choose from?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Plan your Christmas party in Little Sandhurst around the dark: the light goes at about 3:55pm, so choose a lit spot near the door for the van.
