FAQs for Parslow's Hillock

Is Parslow's Hillock too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Parslow's Hillock from London?

Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we will send a quote.

Which areas do you serve?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

Can the van park on the street?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

Do we need to provide anything?

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.

Can you cater for allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Planning for dietary needs

We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:

  • Have other stalls for special diets
  • Agree the terms in writing
  • Let us know about allergy rules on site
  • Send us the pitch size and ground conditions

Agree a wet-weather pitch on hard standing.

Tables and seating nearby help families eat.

How the day works

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. Summer events in Parslow's Hillock have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Should I sort the food myself?

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.

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.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food is a draw when it’s cool. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

Why book with us

  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • No kitchen needed
  • A clear quote before booking
  • Quick service from the hatch
