Fresh fish and chips in Filchampstead
Questions from Filchampstead
Is Filchampstead too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Filchampstead?
Oxford station, about 3.2 miles east of the centre.
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 have a hard-surface back-up.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. See all areas.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What paperwork do you provide?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Filchampstead, fried fresh
A chip van lunch is one of the simplest ways to say thank you to a team. It needs no kitchen and no room booking, and people still talk about it the following week. On the menu are pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for project milestones and team away days.
Rural businesses around Filchampstead can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How the day works

- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.

Planning help
Organising for someone else?
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask facilities about access
- Consider a pre-order list
- Share the shift pattern
- Find out what documents the site needs
Send a message round when the van opens.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Service time
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Numbers
- Whether a minimum applies
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Expected numbers
- Where the event is
- The spot you have in mind for the van
Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
