Fish and chip van for events for your event in Jennett's Park
Country shows and field events suit a van, as long as there is a firm route onto the pitch. We’re frequently asked to cater community open days and sports club events and race days, serving curry sauce, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
Summer fairs around Jennett's Park are often run by volunteers, so a trader who brings everything is a bonus. We cook inside the van, right where your visitors are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your event. We handle the cooking and serving. Summer fêtes in Jennett's Park have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September the light goes at about 7:05pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Cod, haddock or both
- The length of service
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.
Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A picture of where the van would go
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Where you’d like the van to go

Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
One good hot-food van can be enough at a smaller event. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Bookings across Bracknell Forest, including Jennett's Park
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- Quick service from the hatch
Before you choose a spot
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Firm, level ground for the pitch
- Somewhere firm if it rains
- A clear route onto the pitch
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before booking.
