Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits waiting in a tray. We are frequently asked to cater festive get-togethers and staff thank-you lunches, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
In and around Glebe Farm, homes and village halls are common choices. If the road in is narrow, tell us so we can plan the route. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Questions from Glebe Farm
How far is Glebe Farm from London?
About 44 miles from central London.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
How does fish and chip van hire work?
The van parks at your venue, we fry fresh and serve from the hatch.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Glebe Farm.
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. In Glebe Farm, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
