What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

What happens on the day

We arrive on time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. For a staff lunch in Slinfold, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Let us know the serving time

Our booking checklist

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

What affects the price in Slinfold

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Distance and any road charges
  • How many people are eating
  • Access and parking

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The date and time of the event
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • Roughly how many people, including children

FAQs for Slinfold

Which station is closest to Slinfold?

The closest is Christs Hospital station, roughly 2.2 miles away.

Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Do you need power or water?

Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

Do you do customer events and open days?

Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What paperwork do you provide?

Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll go through it with you.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

Planning for dietary needs

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Check with facilities where the van can park
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
  • Send round an allergy question
  • Find out what documents the site needs

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes in the car park or yard.

A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.

Space, access and the venue

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • A short walk from the party

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
