How our fish and chip van for events works in Uxbridge
Organisers can book us as a trader, or to feed crew and volunteers, or both. Whether it’s community festivals and horse and dog shows, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, chips and sausage and chips and more.
Around Uxbridge, a fête or summer fair suits fish and chips. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Before you choose a spot
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue that does not block walkways
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch
- Information about power and water
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Sausage and chips
- Chips
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Cod and chips
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. At midsummer, events in Uxbridge stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, 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.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
What affects the price in Uxbridge
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Service time
- The date and time of year
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Expected numbers
- The date and time of the event
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, use our quote form.
