Chadlington questions
Is Chadlington close to London?
About 67 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Chadlington?
Charlbury station, about 2.4 miles south-east of the centre.
Is grass a problem?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you have documents for our site?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
On the menu in Chadlington

Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
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.
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask facilities about access
- Share the shift pattern
- Flag any coeliac staff
We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so we are ready when the first group comes out.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
