Tutt Hill questions
Is Tutt Hill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Tutt Hill close to London?
About 45 miles from central London.
Do you do anything other than fish?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before you book.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
How long will the queue be?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Fish and chip van for events in Tutt Hill, cooked to order
A hot-food van gives families a reason to stay longer, which is good for every other stall. We are often asked to cater sports days and church fêtes and fish and chip suppers, with haddock and chips, curry sauce and chips.
At a field event near Tutt Hill, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we will plan around it. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Cold food stalls are fine on a hot day, but hot food is a draw when it is cool. Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Agree who removes waste
- Send us the pitch size and ground conditions
- Plan something for visitors we cannot cater for
- Set a time for helpers’ food
When the event closes, we pack up.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
Organising for someone else?
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
How it works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Visitors will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. At midsummer, events in Tutt Hill stay light until about 9:15pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
