What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.

- Distance and any road charges
- The date and time of year
- How easy the site is to reach
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- Anything awkward about the way in

Takeaway run or book a van?
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. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.
Saunderton Lee: your questions answered
How far is Saunderton Lee from London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Saunderton Lee?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before you book.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
Can the van come to Saunderton Lee?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Saunderton Lee and across Buckinghamshire. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.

Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

- We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.
Getting ready for the day

Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A spot near your guests
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A plated meal needs a kitchen, more staff and normally costs more per head. A van needs only a level spot and permission to park. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why us?
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Something for guests to gather round
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Works on wet days as well as sunny ones
