Fresh fish and chips in Wingham Well
Fish and chip van hire in Wingham Well, fried fresh
We keep the menu to the classics: fish and chips, sausages and pies, plus the sides everyone expects. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. Whether it is garden get-togethers and birthday celebrations, we can cook haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.

A chip van compared with other options
Ordering a takeaway for a crowd means long waits and food that cools on the journey. A van fries on the spot, so it’s crisp when it is handed over. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

How the day works
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. Evening events need a little planning for light: in Wingham Well, sunset is around 8:45pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:50pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
