Stubbles: your questions answered
How far is Stubbles from London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Stubbles too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. Visitors love it.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, if we know the times. We’ll plan it with you.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet

- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
What a fish and chip van costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu and how many choices
- Service time
- Numbers
- Parking and the way in
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
What to tell us
To speed things up, tell us:
- Where the van would park
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Send us the date, the address or RG8 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
What happens on the day
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Staff usually gather round the hatch as soon as we open. After-work summer events in Stubbles have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Share the timings for the day

Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Where the van can park in Stubbles
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and suggest an alternative. The main points are:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

About the food
