Fish and chip van for events in Slough: what to expect

A chip van suits school fairs and sports days, with the school’s permission for the van on site. We serve curry sauce, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we’re often booked for sports club events and race days and crew and volunteer catering.

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch, and people can eat where they like. Afterwards we pack up.

Green spaces nearby include Taplow Lake and Burnham Beeches.

Fairs, fêtes and festivals across Slough

In Slough’s villages, events may have limited power and water, and town events in Cippenham, Chalvey and Britwell need quick service for bigger crowds. The van does both.

Slough: Church fêtes, at churches such as St Michael and All Angels, are a natural home for a chip van. If your event is in Herschel Park, the organiser will need the landowner’s permission for vehicles and traders. For an evening event in Slough, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.

Planning for dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

Agree who removes waste
Tell us about the pitch
Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
Agree when volunteers will eat

Agree a wet-weather pitch on hard standing in case the ground is soft.

Pre-selling meal tickets helps us plan.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food is a draw when it is cool.

Slough questions

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.

Can you feed our volunteers and crew?

We can. Give us numbers and a time.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

What are the terms for events?

It depends on the event: a pitch fee, a share of takings or a guaranteed minimum. We will agree terms before the day.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your event and we will send a quote.
