About the food

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.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

For a thank-you that lands, a fish and chip van is a great choice in Dunsbury. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

Why book our van in Dunsbury

  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Classic food your staff already know

See our prices page or what a fish and chip van costs.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.

How it works

There’s very little for you to do on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. Lunchtime bookings in Dunsbury are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:05pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Let us know the serving time

Working with your venue

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Looking after everyone

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

Dunsbury questions

Do you come out to small places like Dunsbury?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What about events near the coast?

Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Can the van come to Dunsbury?

We do. Dunsbury is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

What happens if it rains?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Can you park on the road outside?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

When should we book?

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it is soon.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.

Is grass a problem?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

Our booking checklist

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • A spot near your staff
  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

Dunsbury is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.

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