Fish and chip van hire in Stone, fried fresh
Hiring a fish and chip van brings the chip shop to your door. The van parks up, the fryers go on and everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits waiting in a tray. We are frequently asked to cater weddings and evening receptions and staff thank-you lunches, serving cod and chips, gravy and sausage and chips.
In a hamlet or village like Stone, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Stone: your questions answered
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Stone?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
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.
Is it a full meal?
It is a full meal on its own. You can add your own desserts if you like.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Cold buffets are easy but forgettable, and there’s nothing warming on a chilly day. Fish and chips is fried to order and served hot. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- A quote that spells everything out
- Events in Stone and across Buckinghamshire

How the day works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. Around midsummer it stays light in Stone until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are typically served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan where the queue will stand
