FAQs for North Moreton
Is North Moreton close to London?
About 48 miles from central London.
Do you come to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
We do. Tell us the date and pitch.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
What time is best for food?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.

North Moreton is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire we cover. Our bookings stretch from North Moreton to Oxford (about 10 miles away).

What happens on the day
You’ll know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in North Moreton, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Tell us when you want to eat

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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 typically the easier option.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
Plan cover for the queue.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why us?
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Everything cooked to order at your event

For planners, venues and organisers

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Access and parking
- The minimum booking
- The date and time of year
- The menu and how many choices
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of the parking spot
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Before you choose a spot
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
