Do you come out to small places like Wonersh?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Can you park in our car park or yard?

Do you serve visitors at events?
Yes, it is a great draw. Send us the timings and numbers.

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What the van needs
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we serve
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Staff lunches
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Mushy peas
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

The process
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. We handle the cooking and serving. For a staff lunch in Wonersh, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
