DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. 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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Common questions in Piddington
Is Piddington close to London?
About 33 miles from central London.
Is Piddington too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
How early do Christmas dates go?
Very early. Fridays in December book up first.
