The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. For an evening event in Quarrendon Estate, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- It starts with your event and pitch details.
- You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
- We set up before the gates open.
- We trade from the hatch all event, frying to order.
- We clear the pitch when the event closes.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Let us know the serving time

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Quarrendon Estate
Is Quarrendon Estate close to London?
Roughly 39 miles from the centre of London.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you feed our volunteers and crew?
Yes, at a time that suits your schedule.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can the van come to our fair?
Send us the event details, dates and pitch information and we will let you know if we’re available.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
How we price a fish and chip van for your event
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Parking and the way in
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long we serve
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The venue or postcode
- A photo of the parking spot
Send us the date, the address or HP19 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Cannot 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 solves that by cooking on site.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
