Slough Green: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Slough Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Slough Green from London?
About 33 miles from central London.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.
When should we eat?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it’s dark by about 4pm in December.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is pork only. A chip van gives a choice. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why us?
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- All the chip-shop extras
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Hot food handed straight over

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
