Fish and chip van hire for your event in Cryers Hill
We keep the menu to the classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. We’re frequently asked to cater fish and chip days at care homes and festive get-togethers, serving gravy, cod and chips and sausage and chips.
For a rural spot like Cryers Hill, the setting does plenty of the work. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Cryers Hill: your questions answered
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How far is Cryers Hill from London?
About 30 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How does fish and chip van hire work?
We arrive with the van, cook fresh on site, and serve when you are ready to eat.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How long are you on site?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. Find your area.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
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
Plated meals need a kitchen and a bigger team. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park, and the food is cooked to order. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Why book with us
- Classic food your guests already know
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- Events in Cryers Hill and across Buckinghamshire
- Served hot, straight from the hatch

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
For event organisers in Cryers Hill
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

How it works
You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Evenings in Cryers Hill stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Clear the route for the van

Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
- Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we fry to order as the queue moves.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.
