How the day works

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Hinton Ampner questions
Do you come out to small places like Hinton Ampner?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Hinton Ampner from London?
About 55 miles from central London.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.
Can the van park on grass?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you come onto our site?
That’s up to your site, but a car park or yard is usually ideal.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we will go through it with you.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we will explain the options.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How far we travel
- Your choice of menu
- Service time
- Numbers
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Send us the date, the address or SO24 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just use our quote form.
