About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
For planners, venues and organisers
Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

The closest is Kings Sutton station, roughly 4.3 miles away.
Is Barford St Michael close to London?
Roughly 64 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Do you trade at schools?
We do. We’ll need a safe route onto the site away from children.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Barford St Michael.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.

At the end, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.

How it works
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. At midsummer, events in Barford St Michael stay light until about 9:30pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Have a level parking spot ready

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
- 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
