A chip van near Chaddleworth

Should I sort the food myself?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Chaddleworth questions

Is Chaddleworth close to London?

Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Chaddleworth?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, including West Berkshire. See all areas.

Can the van come to our open day?

Yes. Visitors love it.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we will send a quote.

What do you bring?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Flag any coeliac staff

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we’re ready when the first group comes out.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

What a fish and chip van costs

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • The minimum booking
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The menu and how many choices
  • Service time

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Details that help

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Your date and serving time
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Roughly how many people, including children

To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in Chaddleworth, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.

For planners, venues and organisers

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

How it works

You do not need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. For a staff lunch in Chaddleworth, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. We start with a few details about your staff event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

How to get a price

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Planning help

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

Why book our van in Chaddleworth

  • Hot food handed straight over
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Something for staff to gather round

See how we price or the cost guide.

Planning the van’s spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service
  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
