How our fish and chip van for events works in Westfield

We bring the van and everything we need to cook, which helps volunteer-run events. Whether it’s church fêtes and fish and chip suppers and festivals, we’ll put together a menu of chips, cod and chips and mushy peas for your guests.

How we price a fish and chip van for your event

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

  • The length of service
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Access and parking
  • The number of meals

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The address or venue name

Each quote is put together for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.

FAQs for Westfield

What about events near the coast?

Yes, of course. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Is Westfield close to London?

Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you park on the road outside?

That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

What about visitors who do not eat fish?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.

What can visitors choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Do you need power or water?

Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. Winter fairs in Westfield are dark by about 3:55pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:45pm by late May.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Confirm the van is allowed on site

Allergies and dietary needs

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:

  • Share last year’s numbers if you have them
  • Arrange bins and waste collection
  • Set a time for helpers’ food
  • Have other stalls for special diets

Crew food is served at the agreed time.

Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

For visitors coming by rail, the nearest station is Doleham station, about 1.6 miles north-east. PTAs at schools such as Westfield School frequently want one reliable hot-food stall.

A chip van compared with other options

One good hot-food van can be enough at a smaller event. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Why book with us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • A quote that spells everything out
  • Quick service from the hatch

See our pricing and our guide to van hire costs.

Should I sort the food myself?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Planning the van’s spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • Confirmation the van can trade there
  • Access that avoids crowds
  • Space for a queue away from paths

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