Deddington: your questions answered
Is Deddington too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Deddington?
Kings Sutton station, about 3.2 miles north-east of the centre.
What will facilities need from you?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is grass a problem?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How it works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Lunchtime staff treats in Deddington are in daylight all year round, but evening events need lights from about 3:55pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Make sure the van can get in
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Lighting nearby for evening events
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.

A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Consider a pre-order list
- Collect allergies in advance
- Ask facilities about access
Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Access and parking
- The minimum booking
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of meals
Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Where the event is
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A picture of where the van would go
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
