About our fish and chip van for events in Great Linford

A van suits shows and field events, if the ground is firm enough for vehicles. Whether it is fundraisers and sports tournaments, we can cook sausage and chips, chips and curry sauce for your guests.

For events in a place like Great Linford, one hot-food trader most people like makes life easy. Fish and chips does exactly that. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

What affects the price in Great Linford

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Parking and the way in
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How far we travel

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Where the van would park
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Roughly how many people, including children

Most quotes start with a few simple details: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.

Food your guests will love

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Space, access and the venue

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:

  • A clear route onto the pitch
  • A queue area clear of rides and games
  • A hard-standing or firm grass pitch

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How the day works

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your event. Winter fairs in Great Linford are dark by about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Let us know the serving time
