Fish and chip van hire in Worminghall, cooked to order
You can keep it simple or plan it carefully: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We’ll recommend what fits. We are often asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and festive get-togethers, serving cod and chips, mushy peas and curry sauce.
In a small place like Worminghall, the van frequently parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, dry ground is the key. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it is ready.

How it works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. By late September, sunset in Worminghall is around 7:10pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
- Afterwards, we clear up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

What a fish and chip van costs
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- The number of meals
- Your choice of menu
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Parking and the way in
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Your date and serving time
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we’ll reply with a quote. Just fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’ll work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
