FAQs for Bovingdon Green
Is Bovingdon Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Bovingdon Green from London?
Roughly 31 miles from the centre of London.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
Schedules move, and we plan for it. A contact on the day is all we need.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How much does a fish and chip van for the crew cost in Bovingdon Green?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
Do you come to Bovingdon Green?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Bovingdon Green and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
For a crew lunch people will remember, a chip van is hard to beat. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
Why book with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Hot food handed straight over
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
