Common questions in Mop End
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Mop End?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Should I sort the food myself?
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 is crisp.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Distance and any road charges
- Access and parking
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
