Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Confirm allergies by email
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we arrive well before service. If timings shift, we adapt.

Fish and chip van hire in Northbridge Street, cooked to order
The van needs no kitchen, no hall and no crockery. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. We’re frequently asked to cater staff thank-you lunches and village fêtes and school fairs, with gravy, cod and chips and pie and chips.
In a small place like Northbridge Street, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm ground matters more than anything. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:

Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
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’s fried on the spot.
Step by step
We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your event in Northbridge Street. Late September evenings in Northbridge Street lose the light at about 7:00pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, park up and heat the fryers.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Clear the route for the van
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Parks, greens and streets usually need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

FAQs for Northbridge Street
How far is Northbridge Street from London?
Roughly 43 miles from the centre of London.
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can fish and chips be the only food?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.
Can you feed a lot of people?
It can be. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan it with you.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
