Fish and chip van for events in Kingston Bagpuize, cooked to order
The van is self-sufficient on the pitch, which helps volunteer-run events. On the menu are sausage and chips, curry sauce and chips, and we are often booked for festivals and church fêtes and fish and chip suppers.
Summer fairs around Kingston Bagpuize are often run by volunteers, so a trader who brings everything is a bonus. Everything is fried fresh at your event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- A photo of the parking spot
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, use our quote form.
How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. December events in Kingston Bagpuize lose the light at about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; in late May there’s light until about 9:00pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Getting a price
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
