About our fish and chip van for events in Horns Green
We bring the van and everything we need to cook, which helps volunteer-run events. We are often asked to cater summer fairs and club open days, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.
Near Horns Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so fish and chips goes down well. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

Horns Green questions
Is Horns Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you come to venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
How soon do we need to book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Visitors will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Horns Green.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Tell us about the pitch
- Display allergens for each stall
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
- Share any nut or allergy policies
At the end, we pack down and leave the pitch clean.
Pre-sold meal tickets can help at fundraisers.
The process
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your event. For an evening event in Horns Green, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Clear the route for the van
