About our fish and chip van hire in Littleworth Corner
If the van can park there, we can fry there: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field in and around Littleworth Corner. For village fêtes and school fairs and big birthdays, we can cook sausage and chips, haddock and chips and pie and chips and more.
Somewhere as small as Littleworth Corner, a field, yard or drive is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm ground matters more than anything. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Cold buffets are easy but forgettable, and there is nothing warming on a chilly day. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.
Why Littleworth Corner hosts choose us
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- A menu almost everyone likes
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

How we price a fish and chip van
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- Parking and the way in
- The number of meals
- Distance and any road charges
- The length of service
The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Expected numbers
- Your date and serving time
- Where the van would park
- Anything awkward about the way in
To get a price, use our quote form. Tell us about your event in Littleworth Corner, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
What happens on the day
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Around midsummer it stays light in Littleworth Corner until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are usually served in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.

Looking after everyone
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
- Tell us how many children are coming
- A short menu helps everyone
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We park, set up, fry and serve, and stay in touch about any changes.

Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
FAQs for Littleworth Corner
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Anne?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Littleworth Corner?
Bourne End station, about 2.6 miles west of the centre.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Littleworth Corner.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Why choose fish and chip van hire in Littleworth Corner?
