Fish and chip van hire in Newell Green, cooked to order
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. On the menu are mushy peas, cod and chips and pie and chips, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and school fairs and christmas parties.
Somewhere as small as Newell Green, a field, yard or drive is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. We plan the timings around your day, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Diets, allergies and planning
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Flag any coeliac guests, not just gluten-free preferences
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
- Plan bins near the queue
- Tell us how many children are coming
The fryers take a little while to heat, so we arrive well before service. If plans change, tell us and we’ll adjust.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Newell Green
Is Newell Green close to London?
About 28 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Which station is closest to Newell Green?
The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 1.4 miles away.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
We serve cod and haddock; we will agree the choice when we quote.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Typically, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your event and we’ll send a quote.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
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.
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.
