Our party fish and chip van in Hampshire

We park on the drive or a firm spot near the party, with the hatch facing your guests. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and mushy peas, and we’re often booked for christenings and naming days and summer garden parties.

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served.

Food your guests will love

Sausage and chips

A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Is a fish and chip van right for you?

A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. A van fries on the spot.

Put the menu up by the van.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Organising for someone else?

Hosting at home? Send a photo of where the van would park, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

Organising a club, school or community event in Hampshire? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Common questions in Hampshire

Do we need to provide equipment?

Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

When should we book for a summer party?

As early as you can for summer weekends. Get in touch with your date.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.

Which areas do you serve?

We take the van across London and the South East, Hampshire included. Find your area.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
