Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • The date and time of year
  • The menu and how many choices
  • Parking and the way in
  • The length of service

When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

What to tell us

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Your date and serving time
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.

Questions from Tutts Clump

What’s the nearest station to Tutts Clump?

The closest is Aldermaston station, roughly 2.5 miles away.

Can the van go to venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Do you do crew food?

Yes, at a time that suits your schedule.

Do you bring everything you need?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

What happens if it rains?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Do we need to provide anything?

Tell us what’s available at the site when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

At larger events, a van adds to the mix and spreads the queues. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Why Tutts Clump hosts choose us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Classic food your visitors already know
  • Something for visitors to gather round

Space, access and the venue

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
  • Information about power and water
  • A queue area clear of rides and games

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

What we serve

  • Cod and chips
  • Chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Mushy peas
  • Sausage and chips
  • Haddock and chips

For planners, venues and organisers

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Tutts Clump? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Step by step

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. For an evening event in Tutts Clump, sunset is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
