Lower Upham questions
How far is Lower Upham from London?
About 62 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Lower Upham too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
What paperwork do you provide?
Every site asks for something different, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
How we price a fish and chip van for your team
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Any minimum charge
- The day of the week
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Your date and serving time
Each quote is put together for your staff event. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
- 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
