How the day works
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your staff can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Lunchtime bookings in Salford are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know the serving time

Salford questions
Is Salford too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Salford from London?
About 44 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What does it cost to hire the van?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
