How the day works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Summer events in Twyford have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- 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.
How to prepare

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- A queue area clear of rides and games
- A back-up spot if the ground is soft
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
On the menu in Twyford
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Chips
- Cod and chips
Questions from Twyford
Do you trade at school fairs around Twyford?
Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Is Twyford too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Where can the van park?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your visitors, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Do we need to provide anything?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac visitors and we’ll explain the options.
Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
