Party fish and chip van in Beauworth, cooked to order
Guests who do not know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. We’re frequently asked to cater anniversary celebrations and kids’ birthday parties, serving cod and chips, gravy and mushy peas.
A country party near Beauworth is perfect for fish and chips: cooked to order and eaten on the lawn. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. Timings are planned around your party, whether that is a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.
Working with your venue
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
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.
