Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Most events have a burger van. Fish and chips adds variety. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

Clifton Reynes questions
Is Clifton Reynes close to London?
About 52 miles from central London.
Is Clifton Reynes too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Is the fish gluten-free?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for visitors.
Can you feed our volunteers and crew?
Yes. Give us numbers and a time.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
The process
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we’ll adjust start times and pace to suit your event. At midsummer, events in Clifton Reynes stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Clear the route for the van
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
