FAQs for Speen
Is Speen close to London?
About 54 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Speen?
The closest is Newbury station, roughly 1.2 miles away.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes, and it keeps people on site longer. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. For an end-of-day event in Speen, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it’s about 8:55pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- We start with a few details about your staff event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
What you get with us
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- No surprises in your quote
- Something for staff to gather round
