Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue that does not block walkways
- Confirmation the van can trade there
- A clear route onto the pitch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Curry sauce
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Arrange bins and waste collection
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
- Have other stalls for special diets
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
Bins near the van help keep the site tidy.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Common questions in Edgehill
Is Edgehill too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How do you charge at fêtes?
Tell us how your event typically works with traders, and we’ll find something that works.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How big a pitch do you need?
Send us the pitch details, and we’ll check it works.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we will send a quote.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Distance and any road charges
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
- The date and time of year
Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
- Expected numbers
- A photo of the space and the way in

Running an event in Edgehill

Edgehill is one of 443 places in Oxfordshire where we bring the van. You can also see our page for Oxford, about 27 miles away.
Anywhere in OX15 and CV35, we can fry fresh for your visitors, from busy streets to quiet lanes.

How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Winter fairs in Edgehill are dark by about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 9:00pm by late May.
- Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- We confirm availability, our pitch needs and anything the event asks for.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
- We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
- We clear the pitch when the event closes.
Getting ready for the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Ensure the van can get in
Getting a price
Each quote is put together for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
