Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
One good hot-food van can be enough at a smaller event, with cakes and teas alongside. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.

Step by step
The first sign we’ve arrived is generally the smell, about the time the first visitors wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. At midsummer, events in Westcombe Park stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
