About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Any minimum charge
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
- Distance and any road charges
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the van would park
Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

Bullingstone questions
How far is Bullingstone from London?
About 28 miles from central London.
Is Bullingstone too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you serve each shift?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
