Fish and chip van hire in Little Horwood, fried fresh
Fish and chips is generous food: big pieces of fish, crisp batter and a mountain of chips. It makes the food a talking point. Whether it’s summer garden parties and milestone birthday parties, we can cook curry sauce, gravy and pie and chips for your guests.
In a small place like Little Horwood, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. You’ll know what’s included before you book: the date, the service time and the menu, with no surprises on the day.

Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. 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.
Step by step
You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. In Little Horwood, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Before we arrive
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Have a back-up for anyone who cannot eat from the van
Fish and chips is best eaten straight away, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
Plan cover near the hatch if rain is possible.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
