Fresh fish and chips in High Wycombe

What affects the price in High Wycombe

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The minimum booking
  • The length of service
  • The day of the week
  • Parking and the way in

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

What to tell us

To check availability and price, we need:

  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The venue or postcode

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

How to compare vans

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in High Wycombe

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

How far is High Wycombe from London?

About 30 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Can the van park on the street?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

How do you handle allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac crew in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Planning the van’s spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • Space in front of the hatch
  • Level, firm ground at base
  • Far enough from set to keep noise down

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Share the base location and route
  • Agree how the base is left
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell us about coeliac crew specifically

We take our used oil and waste with us.

A chip van wrap party is a great way to finish a shoot.

Food your guests will love

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

How the day works

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up. Long summer days in High Wycombe, with light until about 9:25pm, suit evening wraps outdoors, while by late September it is nearer 7:05pm.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for the crew.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

How to prepare

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day

Getting a price

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.
