  1. You send us the event details and pitch information.
  2. We confirm availability, our pitch needs and anything the event asks for.
  3. We set up before the gates open.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion and it’s on the menu.

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

Where the van can park in Sherington

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:

  • The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
  • Space for a queue away from paths
  • Information about power and water

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

What we serve

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

Takeaway run or book a van?

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’s fried on the spot.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Sherington questions

How far is Sherington from London?

About 50 miles from central London.

Do you come out to small places like Sherington?

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

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac visitors in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

Can you feed our volunteers and crew?

Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.

Can you cater for allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Is there a non-fish option?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll tell you what we can offer.

Can the van park on the street?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

How much does a fish and chip van for your event cost in Sherington?

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