Party fish and chip van in Bradley, fried fresh
The van can park on a drive, a hardstanding or a firm lawn, with the serving hatch towards the garden. For anniversaries and engagement parties and children’s parties, we can cook curry sauce, sausage and chips and mushy peas and more.
Near Bradley, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the route. The menu is short on purpose: a few classics done properly keeps the food fresh and the queue moving.
Party venues around Bradley
Bradley is about 5 miles west of Alton, in Hampshire. We cover Bradley as standard, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. Bradley is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we bring the van. Our nearest city page is Reading, about 20 miles away.
After a christening at a church like Church of All Saints, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends.

How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Autumn and winter parties in Bradley get dark early: about 7:10pm in late September and 4:00pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- We start with a few details about your party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
How to prepare
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Make sure the van can get in
- Tell us when you want to eat

What affects the price in Bradley
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The number of meals
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Cod, haddock or both
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is frequently the best value.
What we need to know
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Roughly how many people, including children
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Working with your venue
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Show us where the van would go
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.

Questions from Bradley
Can you serve after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.

We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.

What does the van need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
