About our fish and chip van hire in Edgehill
Fish and chips is generous food: crisp batter, flaky fish and plenty of chips. It turns a meal into an occasion. Typical bookings include company team days and weddings, especially the evening, with mushy peas, haddock and chips and gravy.
Somewhere like Edgehill, a yard or firm field often works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We keep the menu short: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.

How the day works
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Evenings in Edgehill stay light until about 9:30pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
