What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

- Agree when volunteers will eat

Do you come out to small places like Aston Upthorpe?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you come to a school fair in Aston Upthorpe?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the van would go.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.

- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

What else we do in Aston Upthorpe
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. Summer events in Aston Upthorpe have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
