Fish and chip van hire for your event in Warren Corner
You can keep it simple or plan it carefully: open service, or food at a fixed time. We will recommend what fits. We serve haddock and chips, gravy and curry sauce, and we are regularly asked to cater Fêtes, fairs and school events and weddings and evening receptions.
Somewhere as small as Warren Corner, a field, yard or drive is frequently the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what we can do before booking.
Takeaway run or book a 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.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
What happens on the day
The first sign we have arrived is normally the smell, about the time the first guests wander across. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. In Warren Corner, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm, the van and the queue need lighting.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
