DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Common questions in Owslebury Bottom
How far is Owslebury Bottom from London?
Roughly 61 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you come out to small places like Owslebury Bottom?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
