Questions from Bradwell
Is Bradwell too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Bradwell close to London?
About 69 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
Do you do wrap parties?
Yes. It’s a great way to end a shoot.
Do you cover Bradwell?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Bradwell and the rest of Oxfordshire. To check your date, use our quote form.
What does the van need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
The process
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your crew can wander over to the hatch once service starts. In December, daylight in Bradwell ends around 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:30pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us a contact for the day
Getting a price
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The date and time of year
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges
- The menu and how many choices
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A picture of where the van would go
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Each quote is put together for your shoot. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Agree how the base is left
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Update numbers if they change
After service, we pack up and get out of the way.
A gazebo by the van keeps the line dry.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A level, firm spot at the unit base
- Room for the crew to queue
- Lighting for early or late service
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Crew lunches

Also in Bradwell
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the shoot.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.
