Chertsey: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Chertsey?
Chertsey has its own station: Chertsey station.
Can the van park in Woburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you come to Chertsey?
We do. We serve events in Chertsey and across Surrey. Send us your date to check availability.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Can you invoice the company?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.

How it works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a staff lunch in Chertsey, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch

What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
