FAQs for Brize Norton
Is Brize Norton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you come to a school fair in Brize Norton?
Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Send us the date and where the van would go.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you pay a pitch fee?
It depends on the event: a pitch fee, a share of takings or a guaranteed minimum. We will agree it in writing.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, Oxfordshire included. Find your area.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- What’s available on the pitch
- Access that avoids crowds
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

How the day works
Changes on the day are fine: we’ll adjust start times and pace. Winter fairs in Brize Norton are dark by about 4:00pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 9:00pm by late May.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
