Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Visitors will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. For an evening event in Ledborough, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Clear the route for the van

Ledborough questions
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Ledborough too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Do you do festivals?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information and we will let you know if we are available.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

Yes, once the school agrees where the van goes. Tell us the date and where the van would park.

Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it’s on the menu.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?

Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
- Plan something for visitors we can’t cater for
- Display allergens for each stall
- Settle the pitch terms early
If we are feeding volunteers, agree a time that suits the schedule.
Pre-sold meal tickets can help at fundraisers.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Confirmation the van can trade there
- What’s available on the pitch
- Vehicle access before the gates open and after they close
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
