The menu is short and classic: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. For staff thank-you lunches and visits to care homes and day centres, we’ll put together a menu of sausage and chips, cod and chips and gravy and more.

FAQs for Mullenspond
How far is Mullenspond from London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Nicholas?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
How does fish and chip van hire work?
We bring the van to your event, set up, heat the fryers and cook to order, serving from the hatch at the time you choose.
Is a chip van good for a large crowd?
That depends on how many and how quickly. A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.
Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- A spot near your guests
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we will keep everyone informed on the day.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It keeps things simple.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Allergies and dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- A short menu helps everyone
- Put allergy details in writing
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we get there in good time. If timings shift, we adapt.
A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.
What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Evenings in Mullenspond stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it’s dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
