Step by step
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. In Benhilton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Make sure the van can get in
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Name one person we can call on the day

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which helps if some guests don’t eat pork. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Benhilton questions
Could you trade in Manor Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in Benhilton?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Yes. Fish and chips with mushy peas is a full meal.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Service time
- How easy the site is to reach
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum booking
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
