For event organisers in Aston Abbotts

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
Diets, allergies and planning

- Give us an idea of numbers
- Have other stalls for special diets
- Ask traders for allergen information to display

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Aston Abbotts questions
Is Aston Abbotts too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Aston Abbotts?
Aylesbury station, about 4.5 miles south-west of the centre.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll take it from there.
Do you do festivals?
Yes, where the date suits. Send us the date, location and expected numbers.

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. Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
