Bitterne Manor questions
Is Bitterne Manor close to London?
About 69 miles from central London.
Can the van go to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Can we pay by invoice?
We will explain how it works when we quote.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can the van come to Bitterne Manor?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Bitterne Manor. To check your date, send us your details through our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
The process
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. In Bitterne Manor, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
