DIY versus a fish and chip van

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.

How our fish and chip van for events works in Midgham Green

Send us the event details and the pitch information, and we’ll tell you quickly whether we can come. Whether it’s sports tournaments and community festivals, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce for your guests.

Near Midgham Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a chip van is a welcome sight. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

How it works

We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. For an evening event in Midgham Green, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
