Fish and chip van hire in Newbury Park

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?

Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, nobody misses the event. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

What you get with us

  • Nothing for you to cook or clear
  • A clear quote before you book
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Classic food your guests already know

How our fish and chip van hire works in Newbury Park

We keep the menu to the classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. For gatherings after a funeral and community events and fairs, we’ll put together a menu of haddock and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

Streets in Newbury Park are often tight, which makes off-street parking, such as a drive, a school playground or a car park, the easiest option. Tell us what you have. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Step by step

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
  4. We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Name one person we can call on the day

Should I sort the food myself?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. In general, we need:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

As a London location, Newbury Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

From the hatch

  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips
  • Chips
  • Gravy
  • Curry sauce
  • Cod and chips
  • Sausage and chips
  • Pie and chips

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Newbury Park

Could you trade in Valentines Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.

We’re gathering after a service at Saint Laurence Church: 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. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Is grass a problem?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

How does fish and chip van hire work?

We arrive with the van, fry everything to order, and serve when you’re ready to eat.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Do you need power or water?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Working with your venue

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will confirm what we can provide.

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Food your guests will love

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Confirm allergies by email
  • Count children separately
  • Let us know numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Plan bins near the queue

The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we get there in good time. If plans change, tell us and we’ll adjust.

Let everyone know when the food is ready, so they do not miss out.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
