Stoke D'Abernon questions
How far is Stoke D'Abernon from London?
Roughly 18 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so contact us early.
What areas do you cover?
We cover London and the South East, including Surrey. Find your area.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Ask staff about allergies with a simple form
- Tell us about coeliac staff specifically
- Send allergies to us in writing
Send a message round when the van opens.
Tell the team in advance: it is half the fun.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Stoke D'Abernon?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, everyone gets a break. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
The process
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your staff, which we agree with you beforehand. For a staff lunch in Stoke D'Abernon, daylight isn’t 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.
