About our fish and chip van hire in Holmer Green
There’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. We’re often asked to cater staff lunches and team days and weddings and evening receptions, serving sausage and chips, gravy and curry sauce.
A place like Holmer Green often has a hall, a club or a pub car park nearby; the van can work at any of them, with permission. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Add an allergy question to your invitations
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Fewer choices mean faster service
Keep the menu short and the queue moves quickly, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Holmer Green
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
We’re gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do you have allergen information?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Can you feed plenty of people?
It can be. Give us your numbers and service time, and we will tell you honestly how service will work.
About the food
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Space, access and the venue
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
