Other occasions in Wisley
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Send the unit base address and directions
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Agree the waste plan with locations
- Give us a contact for call-time changes
Used oil leaves with the van.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- The length of service
- The minimum booking
- The menu and how many choices
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.

To speed things up, tell us:
- A photo of the parking spot
- The address or venue name

- Quick service from the hatch
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- All the chip-shop extras
Read how we price or the cost guide.
How it works
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Sunset in Wisley 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
Getting a price
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
