About the food
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Should I sort the food myself?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
The process
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your shoot. Light in Holly Green lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer; for early or late service, base needs lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
