Knightwood is about 67 miles from central London, well within our area. Nearby historic houses include South Stoneham House (3.7 miles south). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they usually set strict rules for vehicles.
We serve staff events across the SO53 and SO52 postcode area.

What else we do in Knightwood
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Where the van can park in Knightwood
We will be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. What matters most:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
On the menu in Knightwood

Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Ask facilities about access
- Collect allergies in advance
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it is a favourite with children.
How it works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. A lunch-break van visit in Knightwood is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Clear the route for the van
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
