Chillerton: your questions answered
Is Chillerton 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 Chillerton?
Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
How do you charge at fêtes?
We will talk it through when you send the details, and we’ll find something that works.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we will explain the options.
Can you feed our volunteers and crew?
Yes. Tell us how many and when, and we will quote.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will confirm what we need.
Can you trade at our fête or festival?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information and we’ll let you know if we’re available.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Where the van can park in Chillerton
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
For somewhere as remote as Chillerton, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
From the hatch
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Cod and chips

How we price a fish and chip van for your event
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Service time
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- Numbers
The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Your date and serving time
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A picture of the parking spot
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: tell us the basics about your event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Agree who removes waste
- Agree when volunteers will eat
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
- Make sure allergen information is available
Plan where the queue forms, especially near rides and games.
Pre-selling meal tickets helps us plan.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.
