Fish and chip van hire for Binfield events
How our fish and chip van hire works in Binfield
Fish and chip van hire means the chip shop comes to you. We park up, heat the fryers and cook to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and typical bookings are for Fêtes, fairs and school events and christmas parties.
There may be a hall or club near Binfield if the drive is small; any can work for the van, with the owner’s agreement. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and typically costs more per head. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why book with us
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Fried fresh, not kept warm

Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
