Fish and chip van for events in Wintershill
Fish and chip van for events in Wintershill, fried fresh
A van suits shows and field events, if the ground is firm enough for vehicles. We serve chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce, and we are frequently booked for sports club events and race days and charity fundraisers and community events.
Near Wintershill, events may be far from shops and cafés, so fish and chips goes down well. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.
Space, access and the venue
We will be honest if a spot won’t work, and help find another. The main points are:
- A wet-weather pitch on hard standing
- A level, firm pitch the van can drive onto
- Access that avoids crowds
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Winter fairs in Wintershill are dark by about 4:00pm, so we need a lit pitch; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- 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.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us your final numbers and allergies

Wintershill questions
Is Wintershill too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What’s the nearest station to Wintershill?
The closest is Hedge End station, roughly 2.8 miles away.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
How big a pitch do you need?
A firm pitch with space for a queue. Mention any power or water.
What are the terms for events?
It depends on the event: a pitch fee, a share of takings or a guaranteed minimum. We will agree it in writing.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Wintershill?
Burger vans are common at events. Fish and chips adds variety. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why Wintershill hosts choose us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- All the chip-shop extras
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
Read our pricing and the cost guide.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your visitors instead.
What affects the price in Wintershill
There’s nothing hidden: the quote reflects:
- How many people are eating
- The day of the week
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How long we serve
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Your date and serving time
- A picture of the parking spot
- Allergies and diets you know about
Each quote is put together for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.
