Questions from New Alresford
How far is New Alresford from London?
About 54 miles from central London.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Where the van can park in New Alresford
If a spot isn’t suitable, we will tell you, and help find another. What matters most:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
