Fish and chip van for events for your event in Eastchurch
A hot-food van gives families a reason to stay longer, which is good for every other stall. Whether it’s horse and dog shows and community open days, we can cook sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips and more.
At a fête or show near Eastchurch, a chip van brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and the way in. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
What happens on the day
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Evening events in Eastchurch have light until about 9:15pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
