Book the van in Soberton
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Lunchtime bookings in Soberton are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Let us know the serving time
- Clear the route for the van

About our corporate fish and chip catering in Soberton
Facilities can deal with us directly, and we will confirm what we can provide for your site’s paperwork. For open days and staff thank-you lunches, we can cook pie and chips, mushy peas and haddock and chips.
Near Soberton, workplaces can be far from shops, which makes a chip van a real treat. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Numbers
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Cod, haddock or both
- Any minimum charge
Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.
Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Expected numbers
- Where the van would park
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Diets, allergies and planning
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Let us know about coeliac disease
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
A simple pre-order helps us plan.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Soberton
Is Soberton close to London?
Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Soberton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
Do you come to Soberton?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Soberton and the rest of Hampshire. To check your date, use our quote form.

About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A spot near your staff
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
From the hatch
- Cod and chips
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Mushy peas
- Staff lunches
- Sausage and chips
Why choose a fish and chip van in Soberton?
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. A van comes to you. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Working with your venue
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
