About our fish and chip van hire in Souldern
Fish and chips is generous food: crisp batter, flaky fish and plenty of chips. It makes the food a talking point. Typical bookings include wakes and celebrations of life and company team days, serving curry sauce, haddock and chips and gravy.
For a rural spot like Souldern, the setting does plenty of the work. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

How we price a fish and chip van
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- Whether a minimum applies
- The number of meals
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your event is.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Roughly how many people, including children
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Ask about allergies on your invitation or sign-up form
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Plan bins near the queue
- Put allergy details in writing
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we arrive well before service. If plans change, tell us and we’ll adjust.
Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.
Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it is needed. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Late September evenings in Souldern lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Tell us when you want to eat

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
A cold buffet is simple, but food sits out, and nothing’s hot on a cool evening. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Souldern
Do you come out to small places like Souldern?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of the Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.
Can you feed plenty of people?
It depends on numbers and timings. Staggering groups and keeping the menu short both help.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
