Fish and chip van for events in Windlesham, cooked to order
Send us the event details and the pitch information, and we’ll tell you quickly whether we can come. Typical bookings include church fêtes and fish and chip suppers and music and food festivals, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and chips.
For events in a place like Windlesham, one hot-food trader most people like makes life easy. A chip van does that. We cook inside the van, right where your visitors are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.
Step by step
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. At midsummer, events in Windlesham stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your visitors.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Let us know about allergy rules on site
- Agree how we’ll be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
Mark out the queue area away from walkways.
A clear route for the van before the gates open avoids problems.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The menu and how many choices
- The date and time of year
- Service time
- Access and parking
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it is hot, crisp and generous.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
One good hot-food van can be enough at a smaller event, with cakes and teas alongside. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Something for visitors to gather round
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- No surprises in your quote
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
