Is the food cooked at the event?

When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
What about visitors who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Winter fairs in Adversane are dark by about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there’s light until about 8:50pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Share the timings for the day

A chip van compared with other options
Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food is a draw when it’s cool. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Food your guests will love
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
