West Wycombe questions
Is West Wycombe close to London?
About 32 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you serve after a service at Congregational Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
Both are on our menu; tell us which you’d like for your event.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, Buckinghamshire included. Find your area.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
When do you arrive?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
What is fish and chip van hire?
The van comes to you, cook fresh on site, and serve at the time you want.
Fish and chip van hire in West Wycombe, fried fresh
Rain doesn’t stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. It’s a dependable choice for events in any season. Whether it’s wakes and celebrations of life and milestone birthday parties, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and curry sauce.
Somewhere as small as West Wycombe, a field, yard or drive is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Timings are planned around your event, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which suits guests who do not eat pork. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.
Why us?
- No kitchen needed
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Events in West Wycombe and across Buckinghamshire
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum booking
- Cod, haddock or both
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Planners, venues and businesses
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Add an allergy question to your invitations
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Put allergy details in writing
The oil needs time to come up to temperature, so we get there in good time. If plans change, tell us and we will adjust.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
What the van needs
A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
