A closer look at the menu

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

How the day works

Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. Summer events in Green Street have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Preparing for the day

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch

How to get a price

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Planning help

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Most events have a burger van. A chip van gives visitors something different. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Why book with us

  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • Rain does not stop the fryers
  • A menu almost everyone likes

Read our pricing or our guide to van hire costs.

What affects the price in Green Street

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • The date and time of year
  • Any minimum charge
  • Parking and the way in
  • The menu and how many choices

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

What we need to know

The more we know about your event, the better we can plan. Please include:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • A photo of the parking spot

Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: tell us the basics about your event, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: use our quote form.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

Who books fish and chip van for events in Green Street?

It suits almost every visitor.

Common questions in Green Street

Is Green Street close to London?

Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London.

Do you trade at school fairs around Green Street?

Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Send us the date and where the van would go.

Do you come to Green Street?

Yes, we do. Green Street is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

What happens if it rains?

The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.

How long will the queue be?

A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

How do you handle allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Who clears up?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
