Fish and chip van hire for Holloway events
For event organisers in Holloway
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
How our fish and chip van hire works in Holloway
The menu is short and classic: fish and chips, sausages and pies, plus the sides everyone expects. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. Whether it’s evening wedding food and Fêtes, fairs and school events, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas and more.
In a hamlet or village like Holloway, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Bringing the van to Holloway
Holloway is about 2 miles west of Maidenhead, in Windsor and Maidenhead. Events in Holloway are planned around your venue and timings: a quote, a parking spot and fresh frying on the day. Holloway is one of 57 towns and villages in Windsor and Maidenhead where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 10 miles away.
After a service at Saint John the Evangelist, the van can be waiting at a nearby hall or house. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser.
We cover events in every part of SL6 and the streets around it. Local streets include Burchetts Green Lane and Bath Road; an event on any of them works well with a drive or nearby car park. Neighbouring places where we serve events include Littlewick Green (1 mile south-west), Burchett's Green (1 mile north-west), Woolley Green (1 mile south-east), Stubbings (1 mile north-east) and Pinkneys Green (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also take the van to Windsor (7 miles south-east), North Ascot (8 miles south-east), Cookham (4 miles north-east), Dedworth (7 miles south-east), Broomhall (11 miles south-east) and South Ascot (10 miles south-east).
Nearby you will also find St Mark's Hospital (1.8 miles east) and Marlow Museum (3.5 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Taplow Lake and Weycock Hill.

- Pubs nearby include The Shire Horse pub (less than half a mile east)
How it works
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. By late September, sunset in Holloway is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
How to get a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, fill in our quote form.

What a fish and chip van costs
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Any minimum charge
- How long we serve
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- How many people are eating
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Your date and serving time
- Where the van would park
- Expected numbers
Each quote is put together for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.
Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Confirm allergies by email
It helps to have bins and napkins by the van.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
