Your questions about a fish and chip van in Fyfield
How far is Fyfield from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
What happens when we hire the van?
The van comes to you, fry everything to order, and serve at the time you want.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Hampshire included. See all areas.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can the van come to Fyfield?
We do. Fyfield is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

A chip van compared with other options

Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
What a fish and chip van costs
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
