Your questions about a fish and chip van in Medmenham
Is Medmenham close to London?
Roughly 32 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
What happens when we hire the van?
The van comes to you, fry everything to order, and serve when you are ready to eat.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. See all areas.
What do you bring?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Working with your venue
Organising a club, school or community event in Medmenham? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Step by step
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. By late September, sunset in Medmenham is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Share the timings for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
Getting a price
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
