Questions from Wherwell

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

The closest is Andover station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you so food is ready when you want it.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Service time
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of where the van would go
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A picture of the spot helps too. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A short walk from the party
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
From the hatch
- Sausage and chips
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Send round an allergy question
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
- Give us break and shift times
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
For shift teams, we serve in waves.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
