About fish and chip van hire in Wokingham

The queue at the hatch is part of the fun. People gather, catch up and get their food straight from the fryer. Popular choices include sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for visits to care homes and day centres and weddings and evening receptions.

We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day.

A fish and chip van across Wokingham: what to know

Across Wokingham, we serve 5 towns and 21 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Reading, Woodley and Earley or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level spot, a clear way in and a plan.

Reading: If you had Eldon Square in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans cannot simply park up and serve in a public park. For anyone arriving by rail, Reading West station is about 0.7 miles away. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Reading, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

Planners, venues and businesses

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Allergies and dietary needs

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Add an allergy question to your invitations
A short menu helps everyone

You shouldn’t have to worry about the food on the day. We arrive in good time, set up, cook and serve, and stay in touch about any changes.

A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.

Common questions in Wokingham

What is fish and chip van hire?

We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

Can we choose cod or haddock?

Let us know which you’d prefer and we will confirm the menu.

Where do you take the van?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Wokingham.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
