Fish and chip van hire for your event in Broomhall
Rain does not stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. That makes it a safe bet for British events. For wakes and gatherings after a funeral and staff thank-you lunches, we will put together a menu of curry sauce, sausage and chips and gravy and more.
For a place the size of Broomhall, your own drive is frequently the best spot: no hire fees, and fish and chips for everyone without anyone stuck in the kitchen. Let us know how the van reaches the house. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Broomhall: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Holy Trinity Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Could you trade in Silwood Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Is grass a problem?
Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Is there a non-fish option?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Step by step
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. Light matters for evening service: in Broomhall, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Clear the route for the van

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which helps if some guests do not eat pork. Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your event.
Why Broomhall hosts choose us
- No kitchen needed
- Bookings across Windsor and Maidenhead, including Broomhall
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
- Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
A short menu keeps service quick, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
