Fish and chip van for events for Turville events
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Make sure allergen information is available
- Tell us about any school or event allergy policies
- Agree who removes waste
- Have other stalls for special diets
Put bins near the queue.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Questions from Turville
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is Turville close to London?
About 35 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Do you trade at schools?
We do. We’ll need a safe route onto the site away from children.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we will explain the options.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

How the day works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and get on with frying and serving. December events in Turville lose the light at about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; in late May there’s light until about 8:55pm.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Share the timings for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Takeaway run or book a van?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Space, access and the venue
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
- What’s available on the pitch
- A clear route onto the pitch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
