Choosing a fish and chip van

  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A short walk from the party
  • Lighting nearby for evening events

Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Step by step

The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. Evenings in Wokefield stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it is dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
