Common questions in Limmo Peninsula

Can the van park in Bow Creek Ecology Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.

What’s the nearest station to Limmo Peninsula?

The closest is Custom House station, roughly 0.8 miles away.

Is there a non-fish option?

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac crew and we will explain the options.

Can you serve children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

Do you cater wrap parties?

We do. It’s a great way to end a shoot.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Limmo Peninsula?

Next to a sandwich lunch, hot fish and chips is a real lunch. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

What the van needs

  • Access checked by locations

Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:

  • Parking and the way in
  • The date and time of year
  • Service time
  • How many people are eating

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Details that help

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Where the event is
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

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

For event organisers in Limmo Peninsula

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

The process

We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. On a winter shoot near Limmo Peninsula, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.

  1. The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
  2. You get an access check and a quote.
  3. We agree the van’s position and arrival with the location manager.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch when lunch is called.
  5. We pack up straight after service and leave the base tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
