Fish and chip van hire for your event in Wellbrook
A fish and chip van works almost anywhere the van can park: a driveway, a car park, a yard or a firm field in and around Wellbrook. We’re often asked to cater summer garden parties and staff lunches and team days, with gravy, haddock and chips and sausage and chips.
In a small place like Wellbrook, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we’ll plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Everything is fried fresh at your event, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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 solves that by cooking on site.

Your questions about a fish and chip van in Wellbrook
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Wellbrook close to London?
About 37 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Do you cover Wellbrook?
We do. Wellbrook is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
