Book the van in Belmont
Step by step
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. A summer party in Belmont 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.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
How to get a price
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. To send your details, fill in our quote form.

A chip van turns a party into an occasion without anyone being stuck in the kitchen. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. For garden parties and summer get-togethers and leaving parties, we can cook pie and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips for your guests.

What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
