Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Fisher
How far is Fisher from London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you come to a school fair in Fisher?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How much does a fish and chip van for your event cost in Fisher?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Do you pay a pitch fee?
That varies: a pitch fee, a share of takings or a guaranteed minimum. We will agree terms before the day.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Do you come to Fisher?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Fisher is within our area. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.
Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few visitors with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
- Share any nut or allergy policies
- Send us the pitch size and ground conditions
- Plan bins near food stalls
We arrive before the gates open to set up on the pitch, at the agreed time.
Pre-sold meal tickets can help at fundraisers.
