Questions from Ufton Green
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Peter?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Ufton Green?
Aldermaston station, about 1.8 miles west of the centre.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you cover Ufton Green?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Ufton Green and the rest of West Berkshire. For a quote, use our quote form.
Do you bring everything you need?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
What is fish and chip van hire?
The van comes to you, cook fresh on site, and serve when you are ready to eat.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

What else we do in Ufton Green
How we price a fish and chip van
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How far we travel
- Whether a minimum applies
- How easy the site is to reach
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Where the van would park
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The address or venue name
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.
Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.
Should I sort the food myself?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
What happens on the day
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. Planning an evening event in Ufton Green? Sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Clear the route for the van
- Plan where the queue will stand
