Step by step
Here’s how the day generally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. After-work summer events in Gomshall have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Make sure the van can get in

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

Gomshall questions
What’s the nearest station to Gomshall?
Gomshall station, in Gomshall itself.
Is Gomshall too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What about staff who do not eat fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you need power or water?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
Can the van come to Gomshall?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Gomshall and the rest of Surrey. To check your date, fill in our quote form.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planning the van’s spot
We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
