Questions from East Garston
Is East Garston too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van go to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Normally, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. We will agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
