DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Southcourt questions
Is Southcourt close to London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve in the cold?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes. Tell us the date, site and numbers as early as you can.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
When should we eat?
At the time you choose. Plan lighting, as it’s dark early.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

How it works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Sunset in Southcourt in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
How to get a price
