Fish and chip van hire in Wecock Farm, cooked to order
Fish and chips is the meal almost everyone in Britain knows and likes. That is why a van works for so many kinds of event in Wecock Farm. Typical bookings include festive get-togethers and birthday celebrations, serving pie and chips, gravy and cod and chips.
Around Wecock Farm, bookings are often at homes, local halls and clubs. If the road in is narrow, tell us so we can plan the route. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Wecock Farm?
Next to a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which helps if some guests don’t eat pork. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
