Fish and chip van hire for your event in Maiden's Green
Fish and chip van hire means the chip shop comes to you. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits waiting in a tray. We serve pie and chips, curry sauce and gravy, and we are regularly asked to cater fish and chip days at care homes and big birthdays.
In a hamlet or village like Maiden's Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
What happens on the day
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Maiden's Green, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Questions from Maiden's Green
Is Maiden's Green too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you come?
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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Bracknell Forest. See all areas.
Cod or haddock?
We serve cod and haddock; tell us which you’d like for your event.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
A chip van compared with other options
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot, so it is crisp when it’s handed over. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Why us?
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
