Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Tilford Common

Can the van park in Thundry Meadows?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first.

Do you come out to small places like Tilford Common?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

Do you need power or water?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.

What can staff choose from?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Where do you take the van?

We take the van across London and the South East, Surrey included. See all areas.

How much space do you need?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your staff, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Who clears up?

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:

  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Ask facilities what paperwork they need

Keep the queue clear of fire exits and traffic.

A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
