Fish and chip van hire for your event in Bramshott

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
What affects the price in Bramshott
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
- Whether a minimum applies
- Parking and the way in
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.
What to tell us

- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Bramshott
Can the van go to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Bramshott?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it is soon.
Can you feed plenty of people?
It depends on numbers and timings. A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving.
How much does a fish and chip van cost in Bramshott?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

A chip van compared with other options
Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which suits guests who do not eat pork. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
