Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Why Elmhurst hosts choose us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Hot food handed straight over
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

Elmhurst: your questions answered
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to Elmhurst?
Aylesbury station, about 0.9 miles south of the centre.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.
Do you have documents for our site?
Every site asks for something different, so send us the list and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll plan it with you.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Numbers
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your staff event is.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Still finalising the details? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: send us your details through our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
Put bins near the hatch.
A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.
How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, and we agree exactly where before the day. Summer events after work in Elmhurst have light until about 9:25pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:55pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
How to get a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will check availability right away.
