Book the van in Bisham
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

What happens on the day
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we’ll adjust start times and pace. In Bisham, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We confirm availability, our pitch needs and anything the event asks for.
- On the day, we arrive and set up our pitch.
- We cook fresh and serve through the day.
- We pack down at the end and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
