How our fish and chip van for events works in Hughenden Valley
We trade at village fêtes, school fairs, sports days, festivals and shows. Whether it is village fêtes and sports tournaments, we can cook chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips and more.
A fête near Hughenden Valley might be on a field with no mains power; let us know and we will plan for it. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
