How our fish and chip van for events works in Ewhurst Green
A chip van suits school fairs and sports days, with the school’s permission for the van on site. We are frequently asked to cater club open days and horse and dog shows, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
At a fête or show near Ewhurst Green, we can bring hot food to a field. Tell us about the ground and the way in. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.
What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Each quote is put together for your event. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.

Cakes and sandwiches are popular, but hot food brings people in on cooler days. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. Summer fêtes in Ewhurst Green have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Ewhurst Green: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Ewhurst Green?
The closest is Ockley station, roughly 4.2 miles away.
Could you trade in Sayer's Croft LNR?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can the van come to Ewhurst Green?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Ewhurst Green and the rest of Surrey. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll take it from there.
Can you cater for helpers?
Yes. Tell us how many and when, and we will quote.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Share pitch details
- Plan something for visitors we can’t cater for
- Agree who removes waste
- Display allergens for each stall
If we are feeding volunteers, agree a time that suits the schedule.
A sign at the entrance tells visitors hot food is available.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
