Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

Fish and chip van hire for your event in Hethe
If the van can park there, we can fry there: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field in and around Hethe. We are frequently asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and weddings and evening receptions, serving cod and chips, gravy and mushy peas.
Somewhere like Hethe, a yard or firm field frequently works. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
What affects the price in Hethe
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Distance and any road charges
- Access and parking
- Whether a minimum applies
- How long we serve
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.

- The date and when you’d like to eat

Events we cater in Hethe
It’s familiar, so nobody has to guess what they’re getting, which takes the worry out of feeding a mixed crowd.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:
