Fresh fish and chips in Wallcrouch
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Wallcrouch from London?
About 37 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your visitors, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for visitors.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll confirm what we need.

What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Hosting at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
How the day works
When we arrive, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your event. December events in Wallcrouch lose the light at about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:50pm by late May.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Let us know the serving time
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
