Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. The van cooks right there. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What you get with us

  • No kitchen needed
  • The queue at the hatch gets people talking
  • Classic food your guests already know
  • No surprises in your quote

Organising for someone else?

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.

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.

Brightwalton Green: your questions answered

How far is Brightwalton Green from London?

About 56 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Brightwalton Green?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Do you need power or water?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.

Do you need power or water from us?

A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Tell us what’s available and we’ll take it from there.

What if we only have street parking?

Only where it is legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.

What do you bring?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Prices and what affects them

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • The number of meals
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • The length of service

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • A picture of the parking spot
  • Any dietary needs and allergies

Planning help

Takeaway run or book a van?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

About the food

Sausage and chips

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

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
