How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we’ll adjust start times and pace. A lunch-break van visit in Stroud is always in daylight, but later events need lighting: it is dark by about 4:00pm in December.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
Getting a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we’re available that day.

It suits office staff, drivers, warehouse teams and site crews alike, because fish and chips is food everyone knows. Typical bookings include charity and fundraising days at work and open days, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
For farms and rural sites near Stroud, we can bring a hot lunch to the yard. Let us know about tracks and gates. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Organising for someone else?
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service

What comes out of the fryer
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Prices and what affects them
There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- How many people are eating
- How long we serve
- How easy the site is to reach
- The day of the week
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A picture of where the van would go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Collect allergies in advance
- Ask facilities about access
- Find out what documents the site needs
- Consider a pre-order list
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
Some teams make it a regular treat.

Stroud questions
Is Stroud close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Do you work around shifts?
Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.
Can you park in our car park or yard?
Frequently, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. Facilities will decide the spot.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
What will facilities need from you?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we will go through it with you.
Is the fish gluten-free?
