Common questions in Sheffield Bottom
Do you come out to small places like Sheffield Bottom?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Sheffield Bottom close to London?
About 42 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the staff event.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Sheffield Bottom?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- We cover Sheffield Bottom and the whole of West Berkshire
- A van that becomes part of the event

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Your choice of menu
- The date and time of year
- Parking and the way in
- How long we serve
Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- A picture of the parking spot
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we will reply with a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
