Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- A short menu helps everyone
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
A short menu keeps service quick, especially when everyone wants to eat at once.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Mop End: your questions answered
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Can you serve after a service at Church of the Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
What food do you serve?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Does a chip van work for big events?
It can be. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan it with you.
Do you cover Mop End?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Mop End. To check your date, use our quote form.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
Let us know which you’d prefer and we will confirm what we can offer.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Plated meals need a kitchen and a bigger team. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park, and the food is cooked to order. 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.

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
The process
You don’t need to do much on the day: point us to the spot and get on with your event. We handle the cooking and serving. Light matters for evening service: in Mop End, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
