Fresh fish and chips in Peasemore
Step by step
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. December in Peasemore means early darkness: sunset is about 4:00pm, so a lit, sheltered spot for the van is essential.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.

What else we do in Peasemore
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A cold buffet does not feel festive. Hot fish and chips is. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
Why us?
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Classic food your guests already know
- No surprises in your quote
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
What affects the price in Peasemore
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The length of service
- How far we travel
- Your choice of menu
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The address or venue name
- Roughly how many people, including children
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Check the van can park on site
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
A hot drinks station run by your team pairs well with the van.
Common questions in Peasemore
Is Peasemore close to London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can the van go to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before booking.
Can you serve in the cold?
We cook inside the van, so the weather does not stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you come to Peasemore?
We do. Peasemore is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What can guests choose from?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Before you choose a spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A short walk from the party
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
