Fish and chip van hire for your event in Whitmoor Vale

In a hamlet or village like Whitmoor Vale, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good pitch. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Whitmoor Vale: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Luke?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Whitmoor Vale close to London?
About 39 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can we choose cod or haddock?
Tell us your preference when you book and we’ll confirm the menu.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Surrey. Find your area.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can fish and chips be the only food?
Yes. A portion of fish, chips and peas is a proper meal.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.
Looking after everyone
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
The fryers take a little while to heat, so we get there in good time. If plans change, tell us and we will adjust.
Put the menu up by the hatch so people decide while they wait.

Step by step
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Whitmoor Vale, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
- Contact us 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
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
