A chip van near Broughton Crossing
Party fish and chip van in Broughton Crossing, fried fresh
Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers suit a chip van too, once the council has agreed the road closure. We are often asked to cater big birthdays and garden parties and summer get-togethers, with haddock and chips, curry sauce and cod and chips.
Near Broughton Crossing, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll handle the rest. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Broughton Crossing
What’s the nearest station to Broughton Crossing?
Aylesbury station, about 1.5 miles south-west of the centre.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St James?
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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options before you book.
Is the food cooked at the event?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can you park at our house?
It depends on the drive and the access. Mention anything tight, and we will tell you honestly.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Count children separately
- A picture of the parking spot helps
After service, we pack up.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
Occasions we serve in Broughton Crossing
No washing up, no cold buffet to throw away.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Hiring a hall and a caterer adds up. With a van, home becomes the venue. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Why book with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- No kitchen needed
- No surprises in your quote
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
