Fish and chip van hire for Bullbrook events

How our fish and chip van hire works in Bullbrook

If the van can park there, we can fry there: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field in and around Bullbrook. Typical bookings include summer garden parties and weddings and evening receptions, serving cod and chips, pie and chips and sausage and chips.

There may be a hall or club near Bullbrook if the drive is small; the van can work at any of them, with permission. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Planners, venues and businesses

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we will keep you updated on arrival and serving times.

Space, access and the venue

No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

From the hatch

  • Chips
  • Gravy
  • Sausage and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Cod and chips

How it works

On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Planning an evening event in Bullbrook? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; once it’s dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

How to prepare

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Getting a price

About the food

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Looking after everyone

We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Add an allergy question to your invitations
  • Confirm allergies by email

Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.

Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
