Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Fish and chip van for events for your event in Burwood Park
We trade at village fêtes, school fairs, sports days, festivals and shows. We serve haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, and typical bookings are for fundraisers and sports club events and race days.
At a field event near Burwood Park, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
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’s fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:
- Agreement from the site for a catering van
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
- Information about power and water
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Allergies and dietary needs

Burwood Park questions
Is Burwood Park close to London?
Roughly 17 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Burwood Park 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.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What areas do you cover?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How long does set-up take?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How it works
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Visitors usually gather round the hatch once service starts. For an evening event in Burwood Park, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
Ask for a quote
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue run by volunteers, a chip van frees your helpers. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
