Fish and chip van for events for your event in Snow Hill
The van is self-sufficient on the pitch, which helps volunteer-run events. We serve mushy peas, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for feeding event crew and community festivals.
At a fête or show near Snow Hill, a chip van brings hot food to a rural site. Ground and access matter, so tell us about them. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Where the van can park in Snow Hill
We will be honest if a spot will not work. The main points are:
- Agreement from the site for a catering van
- Firm, level ground for the pitch
- Somewhere firm if it rains
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

How the day works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. For an evening event in Snow Hill, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
