About our fish and chip van hire in Deerton Street
Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. We park up, heat the fryers and cook to order, so every portion goes out hot and crisp. We are frequently asked to cater visits to care homes and day centres and staff thank-you lunches, with sausage and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.
In a hamlet or village like Deerton Street, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do.
Planning the van’s spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce

Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Looking after everyone
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Count children separately
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
Put the menu up by the hatch so people decide while they wait.
How it works
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Deerton Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:50pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which suits guests who do not eat pork. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
Why book with us
- No surprises in your quote
- All the chip-shop extras
- A van that becomes part of the event
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
