- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the side most people expect.

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers.

- Ask facilities what paperwork they need
- Consider a pre-order list

Common questions in West Hendred
How far is West Hendred from London?
About 55 miles from central London.
Is West Hendred too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
