Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Staplers
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park in Seaclose Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not 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.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we will confirm what we can provide.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Collect allergies in advance
- Ask facilities about access
Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
Where the van can park in Staplers
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A short walk from the party

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
