How our fish and chip van hire works in Lye Green
There’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. It needs a level, firm spot to park and a clear way in, which suits drives, yards, car parks and firm lawns. We serve gravy, curry sauce and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for wakes and celebrations of life and company team days.
Somewhere like Lye Green, a yard or firm field often works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

How it works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your event. The frying and serving are down to us. In Lye Green, 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 is dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo 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.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Ensure the van can get in
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Planning the van’s spot

- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A short walk from the party
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lye Green?
A cold buffet is simple, but food sits out, and nothing’s hot on a cool evening. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
