How our fish and chip van for events works in Beauworth
Food is fried to order, so nothing sits waiting. We’re often asked to cater village fêtes and summer fairs and sports days, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
Near Beauworth, events may be far from shops and cafés, so fish and chips goes down well. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

What affects the price in Beauworth
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The date and time of year
- How long we serve
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of the parking spot
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where you’d like the van to go
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.
How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your visitors, which we agree with you beforehand. Summer fêtes in Beauworth have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September the light goes at about 7:10pm, so evening trading may need lights.

- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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 cooks in front of your visitors instead.

Beauworth questions
Is Beauworth too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Beauworth from London?
About 57 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How big a pitch do you need?
Tell us the pitch size and ground, and we will confirm.
Do you come to Beauworth?
We do. We serve events in Beauworth and across Hampshire. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you cater for helpers?
Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t 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.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac visitors when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
