Step by step
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. Sunset in Foxbury is about 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Collect diets and allergies with crew details
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Confirm numbers the day before
- Share the base location and route
We arrive at base in good time and set up.
Tables or a marquee at base make lunch comfortable.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
For event organisers in Foxbury
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Wrap parties add up. A van keeps it relaxed and simple. Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
