FAQs for Neithrop
Do you trade at school fairs around Neithrop?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the van would go.
How far is Neithrop from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
How do you charge at fêtes?
We’ll talk it through when you send the details, and we will find something that works.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Generally, if it’s firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
How much does a fish and chip van for your event cost in Neithrop?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue run by volunteers, a chip van frees your helpers. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
- Parking and the way in
- The length of service
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The spot you have in mind for the van
It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
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 cooks in front of your visitors instead.
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 is fried on the spot.
Who books fish and chip van for events in Neithrop?

Working with your venue
