Fresh fish and chips in Belbins

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Belbins

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

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

How far is Belbins from London?

Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London.

Do you cover Belbins?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Belbins. To check your date, fill in our quote form.

Do you bring everything you need?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

How early do summer dates go?

Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

Do you need power or water from us?

Let us know about power and water at the house, and we will say what we need.

Can you come to a street party?

Yes, with the council’s permission for the road closure. Mention the van in your application.

Events we cater in Belbins

With a van, the host gets to enjoy the party. It’s also a bit of fun.

Whatever brings people together, fish and chips from the hatch goes down well. We regularly serve:

  • Reunions and family get-togethers
  • Garden parties and summer get-togethers
  • Children’s parties
  • Retirement celebrations

Historic houses near Belbins include Mottisfont Abbey (2.7 miles north-west). Grand settings like these often have strict rules on vehicles and caterers, so for most parties a home or hired hall is simpler.

  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
  • Make sure the van can park legally
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Confirm allergies by email

With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

About the food

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
