About our fish and chip van hire in Tyringham
Because the cooking is in the van, the weather does not stop us. It is a dependable choice for events in any season. On the menu are curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for care home visits and Fêtes, fairs and school events.
Somewhere as small as Tyringham, a field, yard or drive is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm ground matters more than anything. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your event, and the food reaches them hot and crisp.

Tyringham: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Tyringham close to London?
About 51 miles from central London.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Milton Keynes included. See all areas.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can fish and chips be the only food?
Yes. A portion of fish, chips and peas is a proper meal, and you can add your own cake or desserts.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan service around it.
Do you cover Tyringham?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Tyringham and across Milton Keynes. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

Is a fish and chip van right for your event?
A cold buffet is simple, but food sits out, and there’s nothing warming on a chilly day. A chip van cooks to order and serves hot. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
- A van that becomes part of the event
- We cover Tyringham and the whole of Milton Keynes
- Quick service from the hatch
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

The process
Serving is straightforward: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Around midsummer it stays light in Tyringham until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it is dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
- When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Ensure the van can get in

- A short walk from the party
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
