A chip van compared with other options
Cold buffets are easy but forgettable, and nothing’s hot on a cool evening. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

How our fish and chip van hire works in Green Street
Queuing at the hatch is half the experience. People gather, catch up and get their food straight from the fryer. On the menu are gravy, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater community events and fairs and garden get-togethers.
In a rural place like Green Street, fish and chips in a field feels just right. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

How the day works

Late September evenings in Green Street lose the light at about 7:00pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.

- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
