Fish and chip van for events for Stratton Audley events

What happens on the day

We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it’s ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. December events in Stratton Audley lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 9:00pm by late May.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your visitors.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Have a level parking spot ready

Prices and what affects them

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The day of the week
  • The number of meals

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • A picture of the parking spot
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and time of the event
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Each quote is put together for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.

Planners, venues and businesses

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in Stratton Audley

Do you trade at school fairs around Stratton Audley?

Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the van would go.

What’s the nearest station to Stratton Audley?

The closest is Bicester North station, roughly 2.4 miles away.

We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for visitors are worth planning.

Do you come to Stratton Audley?

Yes, we do. Stratton Audley is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.

Is grass a problem?

Where can the van park?

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your visitors, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Before you choose a spot

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you, and help find another. The main points are:

  • Space for a queue away from paths
  • Access that avoids crowds
  • A wet-weather pitch on hard standing

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

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

What comes out of the fryer

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.

Events we cater in Stratton Audley

It can feed crew and volunteers too.

  • Community open days
