A chip van near Fullerton
About our fish and chip van for events in Fullerton
The van is self-sufficient on the pitch, which helps volunteer-run events. We serve sausage and chips, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are often booked for community open days and village fêtes and summer fairs.
At a field event near Fullerton, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. We cook inside the van, right where your visitors are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
- Agreement from the site for a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
