Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
How the day works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. December events in Sutton Green lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; in late May there is light until about 8:55pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Make sure the van can get in

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
At larger events, a van adds to the mix and spreads the queues. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What you get with us
- No surprises in your quote
- No kitchen needed
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- A van that becomes part of the event

Sutton Green questions
Can you come to a school fair in Sutton Green?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the van would go.
Can the van park in Mayford Meadows?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.

Tell us the pitch size and ground, and we will check it works.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we will explain the options.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you cover Sutton Green?
