For event organisers in West Wycombe

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Questions from West Wycombe

Is West Wycombe close to London?

About 32 miles from central 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 will work to whatever the site needs.

Is everything cooked fresh?

It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. Find your area.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Do you do work Christmas parties?

We do. Tell us the date, site and numbers as early as you can.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • Parking and the way in
  • How many people are eating
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Your choice of menu

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your Christmas party is.

What we need to know

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Rough numbers for adults and children

We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Occasions we serve in West Wycombe

It suits shift teams who cannot all go out together.

Whatever brings people together, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. We regularly serve:

  • Boxing Day and New Year gatherings
  • Christmas fairs at schools
  • Festive family gatherings
  • End-of-year club parties

A winter fair at a school like West Wycombe Combined School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular.

Choosing a fish and chip van

DIY versus a fish and chip van

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

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.

The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

Space, access and the venue

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

On the menu in West Wycombe

  • Gravy
  • Cod and chips

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?

A hog roast is popular at Christmas, but it is one dish. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

The process

We arrive on time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In December, it is dark in West Wycombe by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Preparing for the day

  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
