Fresh fish and chips in Weston-on-the-Green
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Fish and chip van for events for your event in Weston-on-the-Green
Country shows and field events suit a van, if the ground is firm enough for vehicles. Typical bookings include agricultural and country shows and summer fairs, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
Near Weston-on-the-Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a chip van is a welcome sight. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How it works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your visitors, and we agree exactly where before the day. Summer events in Weston-on-the-Green have daylight until about 9:30pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- 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
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
