Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Step by step
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. Evening events in Wineham have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Share the timings for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

- The landowner’s or organiser’s permission for the van
- Somewhere firm if it rains
- A hard-standing or firm grass pitch

About the food
Mushy peas

Haddock and chips

Wineham questions
Do you come out to small places like Wineham?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Wineham close to London?
About 37 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Do you do festivals?
Tell us the date and pitch details and we will check.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
