Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A meal out takes everyone off site. A van comes to you. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why book our van in Hiltingbury
- Hot food handed straight over

Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
What affects the price in Hiltingbury
Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Staff usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. In Hiltingbury, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
