What else we do in Huntercombe
The process
We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. For a staff lunch in Huntercombe, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Before we arrive

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
We get there ahead of the lunch break, so we are ready when the first group comes out.

Prices and what affects them
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
- The minimum booking
- How long we serve
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Huntercombe: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Huntercombe?
Burnham station, in Huntercombe itself.
Can the van park in Haymill Valley?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for staff.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Is grass a problem?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
