What happens on the day
The first sign we’ve arrived is typically the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. In Wooburn Green, a midsummer event stays light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm, so evening trading may need lights.

A chip van compared with other options
At a small fête, one good trader may be all you need, with cakes and teas alongside. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why us?
- A clear quote before you book
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Something for visitors to gather round
Wooburn Green: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Wooburn Green?
The closest is Bourne End station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
Is Wooburn Green close to London?
About 26 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What about visitors who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For event organisers in Wooburn Green
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Having the party at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Display allergens for each stall
- Send us the pitch size and ground conditions
- Arrange bins and waste collection
- Set a time for helpers’ food
If we’re feeding volunteers, agree a time that suits the schedule.
Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.
