Hightown: your questions answered
Is Hightown 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 New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for staff.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
Can you come onto our site?
Normally, if there’s a level spot and the site allows it. Facilities will decide the spot.

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. For an end-of-day event in Hightown, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it is about 8:55pm.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Something for staff to gather round
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Classic food your staff already know
