Choosing a fish and chip van

What happens on the day

Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. December events in Peppard Hill lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there is light until about 8:55pm.

  1. You send us the event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm the date, what we need on the pitch and any documents.
  3. We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
  4. We cook fresh and serve through the day.
  5. We clear the pitch when the event closes.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Have a level parking spot ready

Planning help

Space, access and the venue

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • A back-up spot if the ground is soft
  • Access that avoids crowds
  • Firm, level ground for the pitch

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What we serve

  • Chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Sausage and chips

The menu, dish by dish

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.

Curry sauce

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

Should I sort the food myself?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
