Fish and chip van hire in Twitham, fried fresh
There is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which most drives, car parks and yards can offer. We serve gravy, haddock and chips and curry sauce, and we are often booked for staff thank-you lunches and visits to care homes and day centres.
Somewhere like Twitham, a yard or firm field frequently works. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
A chip van compared with other options
Plated meals need a kitchen and a bigger team. A fish and chip van needs a level spot and permission to park. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Why book our van in Twitham
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

What a fish and chip van costs
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- The length of service
- How easy the site is to reach
- How many people are eating
- Your choice of menu
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Roughly how many people, including children
Send us the date, the address or CT3 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and we will reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the event.
