Touchen-end questions
Can the van park in Ockwells Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you come out to small places like Touchen-end?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Can the van come to Touchen-end?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Touchen-end is within our area and the rest of Windsor and Maidenhead. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
With a barbecue, somebody ends up cooking all afternoon. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
What you get with us
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- No surprises in your quote
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
Fish and chips is best eaten straight away, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
A chalkboard by the hatch with the menu keeps the queue moving.
