About our party fish and chip van in Addlestone
There’s no need for a venue: a chip van on the drive turns your home into the venue. We serve haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for engagement parties and garden get-togethers.
In a place like Addlestone, a party at home is typically the easiest option. Let us know how the van reaches the house, and we’ll bring everything else. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
FAQs for Addlestone
Can the van park in Woburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Which station is closest to Addlestone?
Addlestone station, in Addlestone itself.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Food your guests will love
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.
Mushy peas
Proper mushy peas start with dried marrowfat peas. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

- Put allergy details in writing
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Send us a picture of the drive
When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
A few lights around the van look great.
Hosting a chip van party in Addlestone

Historic houses near Addlestone include Botleys Mansion (1.8 miles west) and Byfleet Manor (3 miles south-east).

Addlestone is on the A317 and A318, so it’s easy for us to reach with the van.

How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. A summer party in Addlestone stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
