DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for the crew in Littlemore
What’s the nearest station to Littlemore?
The closest is Radley station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
How far is Littlemore from London?
About 51 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Do you have documents for productions?
Send us your supplier requirements.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Distance and any road charges
- Your choice of menu
- Parking and the way in
- Whether a minimum applies

Details that help
The more we know about your shoot, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The date and time of the event
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
For event organisers in Littlemore
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. At midsummer, Littlemore has light until about 9:25pm, while by late September it’s nearer 7:10pm.
- First, tell us about your shoot.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for the crew.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
Getting a price
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Where the van can park in Littlemore
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Agreement from the location manager and landowner
- A queue area clear of trucks
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Littlemore?
Some locations have nowhere to buy food. The van solves that. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What you get with us
