Party fish and chip van for Berrylands events

How our party fish and chip van works in Berrylands

A chip van works for birthdays, garden parties and family celebrations. Everyone from toddlers to grandparents knows what they’re getting. We are frequently asked to cater family celebrations after a christening and neighbourhood get-togethers, serving pie and chips, curry sauce and gravy.

Throwing a party in Berrylands? A van means no cooking for you, at home, at a hall or at a club. Mention any parking restrictions. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

15 questions to ask before you book

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. The van cooks right there. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Why book with us

  • All the chip-shop extras
  • Classic food your guests already know
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Works on wet days as well as sunny ones

See our prices page or our guide to van hire costs.

Planning for dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Send us a photo of the drive
  • Ensure the van can park legally
  • Count children separately
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically

For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.

A closer look at the menu

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.

Common questions in Berrylands

Can you serve after a service at Emmanuel?

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

What about parking in Berrylands?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.

Will the van fit on our drive?

It depends on the drive and the access. Mention anything tight, and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.

Do you have allergen information?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

How far ahead should we book a party?

Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.

How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Berrylands?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.

Prices and what affects them

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • How far we travel
  • Service time

Should I sort the food myself?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

The process

You will know we are ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. At midsummer, it’s light in Berrylands until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Tell us when you want to eat
