Should I sort the food myself?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
The process
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Planning an evening event in Leverton? Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

Questions from Leverton
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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Leverton too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
Is a chip van good for a large crowd?
It can be. Give us your numbers and service time, and we will tell you honestly how service will work.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Is fish and chips enough as a meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
How does fish and chip van hire work?
We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.
A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which helps if some guests do not eat pork. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
