Planning an event in Adstock?

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

It feels like a treat, but stays relaxed: fish and chips from the van, eaten in the garden. For street parties and neighbourhood events and children’s parties, we’ll put together a menu of curry sauce, sausage and chips and pie and chips and more.

The process

We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. Sunset in Adstock drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
  4. Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Getting a price

Send us the date, the address or MK18 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.

Planners, venues and businesses

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Why book with us

  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
  • A van that becomes part of the event

Common questions in Adstock

How far is Adstock from London?

Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Cecilia?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.

Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.

Will the van fit on our drive?

That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we will tell you honestly.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

Is grass a problem?

Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
