Yes, it’s a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.

Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
Do you have documents for our site?
Sites vary, so send us the list and we will confirm what we can provide.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Lunchtime bookings in Rushenden are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.

How to prepare

- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Other occasions in Rushenden
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it is a favourite with children.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. The van brings lunch to the team. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
