For event organisers in Cold Brayfield
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Cold Brayfield? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Perfect for your event in Cold Brayfield
It needs no kitchen, so it is at home in car parks, yards and fields where plated meals are hard.

If you are gathering after a service at a church like Church of St Mary, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van.

We do. We serve events in Cold Brayfield and across Milton Keynes. Send us your date to check availability.
What happens when we hire the van?
We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
How it works
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. Around midsummer it stays light in Cold Brayfield until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
