Fish and chip van hire for Nyton events

Fish and chip van hire for your event in Nyton

Rain doesn’t stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. That makes it a safe bet for British events. For Fêtes, fairs and school events and fish and chip days at care homes, we can cook haddock and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce for your guests.

Somewhere like Nyton, a yard or firm field often works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

How it works

Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Around midsummer it stays light in Nyton until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

A chip van compared with other options

Compared with a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which helps if some guests do not eat pork. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.

Why us?

  • Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Hot food handed straight over

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Parking and the way in

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A photo of the space and the way in

  • Give us separate numbers for children
