Step by step
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. By late September, sunset in Winton is around 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Planning help
Should I sort the food myself?
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.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
What affects the price in Winton
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

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 don’t eat pork. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
