The process
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Oakley Green: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is frequently in daylight but a wrap meal is not.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Why choose a fish and chip van in Oakley Green?
Ordering takeaway to a location is unreliable. The van cooks on site. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your shoot.
Why us?
- Classic food your crew already know
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- No kitchen needed
- Served hot, straight from the hatch

Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.

Windsor & Eton Central station, about 2.3 miles east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Oakley Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What can crew choose from?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
