About our fish and chip van for events in Stone Corner
A van suits shows and field events, as long as there is a firm route onto the pitch. We serve chips, cod and chips and curry sauce, and we’re frequently booked for church fêtes and horse and dog shows.
Rural events near Stone Corner can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so fish and chips goes down well. Everything is fried fresh at your event, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
At bigger events, a chip van works alongside other traders and spreads the queues. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The length of service
- The number of meals
- Parking and the way in
- The minimum booking
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
The process
The first sign we have arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first visitors wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. December events in Stone Corner lose the light at about 3:50pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there is light until about 8:45pm.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
How to get a price
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Make sure allergen information is available
- Agree how we’ll be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Give us an idea of numbers
- Send us the pitch size and ground conditions
We arrive before the gates open to set up on the pitch, at the agreed time.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
- Space for a queue away from paths
- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
