We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Summer events after work in Tongham have light until about 9:20pm; in late May it is about 8:55pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

What to look for in a quote
- What happens if plans change
- How late numbers can change
- What they can offer for dietary needs
- A clear list of what’s included
Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Give us break and shift times
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Check with facilities where the van can park
- Find out what documents the site needs
We can serve each shift in turn, as agreed in advance.
Tell the team in advance: it’s half the fun.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Tongham?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

What else we do in Tongham
Tongham: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Tongham?
Ash station, about 1.4 miles north-east of the centre.
Can the van park in Aldershot Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Do you serve visitors at events?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Can you come onto our site?
Generally, if there is a level spot and the site allows it. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.
What can staff choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
What the van needs
We will be honest if a spot won’t work. The main points are:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- A clear area by the serving hatch
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
