Step by step
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. For a staff lunch in New Pound, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in New Pound
Do you come out to small places like New Pound?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to New Pound?
Wateringbury station, about 2.8 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Often, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
Can you serve each shift?
Give us the break times and we’ll serve in waves.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
