Fish and chip van hire in Atherfield Green, cooked to order
Fish and chips is the meal almost everyone in Britain knows and likes. That is why a van works for so many kinds of event in Atherfield Green. We serve sausage and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce, and we’re frequently booked for summer garden parties and company team days.
In a small place like Atherfield Green, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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 guests instead.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Evenings in Atherfield Green stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it’s dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.
- 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.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Share the timings for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
What to tell us
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and time of the event
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where the van would park
- A photo of the space and the way in
Send us the date, the address or PO38 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
- Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
Keep the menu short and the queue moves quickly.

Planning the van’s spot
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
For somewhere as remote as Atherfield Green, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

FAQs for Atherfield Green
Do you come out to small places like Atherfield Green?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do we need to provide equipment?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
