If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

About our fish and chip van for events in Troy Town
A chip van suits school fairs and sports days, with the school’s permission for the van on site. For sports club events and race days and church fêtes and fish and chip suppers, we will put together a menu of haddock and chips, cod and chips and chips and more.
For a village fête or field event near Troy Town, we can bring hot food to a field. Ground and access matter, so tell us about them. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

Not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we will explain the options before booking.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
