About our fish and chip van hire in Aspley Heath
We keep the menu to the classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. A short menu keeps the food fresh and the queue moving. For evening wedding food and Fêtes, fairs and school events, we’ll put together a menu of mushy peas, sausage and chips and curry sauce for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Aspley Heath, a field, yard or drive is frequently the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters more than anything. Food is served straight from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and service is quick once we are up and running.

For planners, venues and organisers
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks right there, so the batter is still crisp. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your event is.
Why us?
- All the chip-shop extras
- A clear quote before booking
- Classic food your guests already know
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
Allergies and dietary needs
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Put allergy details in writing
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Fish and chips is best eaten straight away, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

The process
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Aspley Heath, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.

- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, 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
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
