Common questions in Brightwalton Green
How far is Brightwalton Green from London?
About 56 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Brightwalton Green too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac visitors when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

If you’re organising a summer fair or sports day for a school such as Brightwalton C.E. Aided Primary School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. Events in and around the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, within about 7 miles of Brightwalton Green, often have rules about vehicles, ground and waste; we will follow the site’s requirements.

Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
