A chip van fits right in at seaside locations. Popular choices include mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for stills shoots and event crews.
Rural locations near Trumps Green can be a long way from food, so a van at base is a big help. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Step by step
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Crew usually gather round the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Trumps Green is about 8:55pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; for dawn calls or late wraps, plan lighting at base.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for the crew.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Planning help
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Flag any coeliac crew
- Have a back-up for special diets
We take our used oil and waste with us.
Pre-orders from the crew help on tight breaks.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

- Where the event is
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, send us your details through our quote form.
Trumps Green: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Trumps Green?
The closest is Virginia Water station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Could you trade in Riverside Walk?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Can you adjust to schedule changes?
Schedules move, and we plan for it. Keep us updated and we’ll adapt.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac crew in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
Can the van come to base?
Yes, on level ground at base; we’ll check the route.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Clear of the shot and sound
- Space in front of the hatch
- A level, firm spot at the unit base
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
