For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
For somewhere as remote as Spring Vale, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips

Food your guests will love
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Corporate buffets are typically cold. A van serves hot food to order. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Events in Spring Vale and across the Isle of Wight
- Classic food your staff already know
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

Spring Vale is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Spring Vale to Southampton (18 miles away).
Teams travelling in by rail can use the station: Ryde St Johns Road station, about 1.4 miles west, is the nearest station. Central London is about 70 miles from Spring Vale, well within our area. The coast is within about 2 miles, so a chip van lunch feels like a day at the seaside.

Within a short drive, we also cover Newport (8 miles west), Cowes (8 miles west), Sandown (5 miles south), Shanklin (7 miles south), Ventnor (10 miles south-west) and East Cowes (7 miles west).
