Common questions in Peel Common
Can you serve near the sea around Peel Common?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Which station is closest to Peel Common?
The closest is Fareham station, roughly 2 miles away.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
How does payment work for businesses?
We will explain how it works when we quote for businesses.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
How far ahead should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Corporate fish and chip catering in Peel Common, fried fresh
We plan service around your breaks and shifts, so nobody misses out. Whether it is retirement send-offs and celebrating a big win, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
Rural businesses around Peel Common can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, which makes a chip van a real treat. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A short walk from the party
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. A lunch-break van visit in Peel Common is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.

- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
