Other occasions in Kingham
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
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.
Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Space in front of the hatch
- A hardstanding spot at the unit base
- Permission for the van at base
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
