Fresh fish and chips in Brize Norton
How our party fish and chip van works in Brize Norton
A chip van also works for street parties, with the right permissions in place. On the menu are haddock and chips, pie and chips and curry sauce, and we’re regularly asked to cater family reunions and neighbourhood get-togethers.
Country parties near Brize Norton suit a chip van: fried fresh and eaten outside. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

For event organisers in Brize Norton
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
The process
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Autumn and winter parties in Brize Norton get dark early: about 7:10pm in late September and 4:00pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Tell us when you want to eat

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- The minimum booking
- Your choice of menu
- Numbers
- How easy the site is to reach
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of the parking spot
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

Brize Norton: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Brize Norton?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Brize Norton close to London?
Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. Find your area.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.
What if we only have street parking?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is usually easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Mention the van to neighbours
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Count children separately
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. The van cooks right there. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your party is.
Why Brize Norton hosts choose us
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- No kitchen needed

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
- 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
