Hot food in the car park, rain or shine, because the cooking is inside the van.

  • Summer team days

Within reach of Longworth are historic houses such as Longworth House (under half a mile west) and Appleton Manor (3.6 miles east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they usually set strict rules for vehicles.

FAQs for Longworth

Is Longworth too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

How far is Longworth from London?

About 59 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Where can the van park?

Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

What if the weather’s bad?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for staff.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What affects the price in Longworth

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Service time
  • Parking and the way in
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Distance and any road charges

The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

What we need to know

The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.

Before you choose a spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch
  • Confirmation that the van can park there

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

What we serve

  • Staff lunches
  • Haddock and chips

What happens on the day

We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In Longworth, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

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 cooks in front of your staff instead.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Planners, venues and businesses

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Looking after everyone

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Agree the van’s spot with facilities
  • Give us break and shift times
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically

Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.

A sign in reception or a team message builds the excitement.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
