About the food
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Chazey Heath
Do you come out to small places like Chazey Heath?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Chazey Heath from London?
About 39 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Can you come onto our site?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
What about staff who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- How easy the site is to reach
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.
