Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Beggar's Bush
What’s the nearest station to Beggar's Bush?
Sunningdale station, about 1 mile south of the centre.
Is Beggar's Bush close to London?
Roughly 24 miles from the centre of London.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Do you come to Beggar's Bush?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Beggar's Bush and the rest of Windsor and Maidenhead. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
What will the production need?
Every production asks for different things, so send us the list and we’ll go through it.
What does it cost to hire the van?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A wrap party at a venue costs more. A van keeps it relaxed and simple. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- No surprises in your quote
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Bookings across Windsor and Maidenhead, including Beggar's Bush
- Served hot, straight from the hatch

What happens on the day
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. Winter shoots near Beggar's Bush chase the light, which goes at about 3:55pm in December, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Get permission for the van from the venue
