About our fish and chip van hire in Brookside
Keep it simple, or plan every detail: open service, or food at a fixed time. We’ll suggest what suits your event. We serve sausage and chips, pie and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for christmas parties and community events and fairs.
Somewhere as small as Brookside, a field, yard or drive is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Step by step
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Evening events need a little planning for light: in Brookside, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Name one person we can call on the day

Questions from Brookside
Do you come out to small places like Brookside?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Which station is closest to Brookside?
The closest is Ascot station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
Both are on our menu; we will agree the choice when we quote.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
