Fish and chip van for events in Loxhill, fried fresh
We trade at village fêtes, school fairs, sports days, festivals and shows, from small community events to bigger crowds. For music and food festivals and country shows, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and curry sauce and more.
Rural events near Loxhill can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a chip van is a welcome sight. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.
What happens on the day
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Visitors will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Loxhill, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:20pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day

Loxhill is one of 395 towns and villages in Surrey where we bring the van. You can also see our page for Guildford, about 8 miles away.
If visitors are coming by train, the closest railway station is Witley station, roughly 3.5 miles west of the centre. Within about 8 miles is the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on vehicles and waste; we work to the site rules.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.
