Fish and chip van for events for Pyle Hill events
Community events around Pyle Hill
Pyle Hill is about 2 miles south of Woking, in Surrey. Whether your event is in the middle of Pyle Hill or on the outskirts, we offer the same service: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. Pyle Hill is one of 395 places in Surrey where we bring the van.
Church fêtes, at churches such as All Souls' Church, are a natural home for a chip van. Events in parks such as Mayford Meadows need permission from the council or landowner, and the van needs a firm route onto the pitch. Within about 7 miles is the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on vehicles and waste; we will follow the site’s requirements.
Events anywhere in GU22 start with a parking spot for the van and a serving time.

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
