Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies

- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Send round an allergy question
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
Common questions in Bull Hill
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Is Bull Hill too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can you serve children?
Yes. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Where will the van go on our site?
That is up to your site, but a car park or yard is normally ideal.
How the day works
Here’s how the day typically runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. After-work summer events in Bull Hill have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Share the timings for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A spot near your staff
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.
