Party fish and chip van in Brockenhurst, fried fresh
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. Typical bookings include street parties and neighbourhood events and leaving parties, serving mushy peas, haddock and chips and gravy.
In a place like Brockenhurst, a party at home is usually the easiest option. Let us know how the van reaches the house, and we’ll bring everything else. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and 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.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van gives people a choice. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
