  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A clear area by the serving hatch

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Choosing a fish and chip van

What affects the price in Buckland

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Numbers
  • Access and parking
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The minimum booking

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the event is
  • The spot you have in mind for the van

Takeaway run or book a van?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.

Buckland parties: what to know

Buckland is about 5 miles east of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. For parties in Buckland, we can park on a drive, a car park, a yard or firm, dry grass in and around Buckland. We cover 263 places in Buckinghamshire. You can also see our page for Milton Keynes, about 16 miles away.

For guests coming by train, Wendover station, about 3.2 miles south-west, is the nearest station. Nearby historic houses include Cholesbury Manor House (4.2 miles south-east). For most parties, a home or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict vehicle rules. Buckland is within about 4 miles of the Chilterns National Landscape, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.

For parties in HP22, we just need to know where the van can park. We can serve a party on streets such as Peggs Lane and New Road, wherever the van can park. If your venue is just outside Buckland, we also cover Aston Clinton (1 mile west), Broughton (3 miles north-west) and Bedgrove (3 miles west). Larger places within reach include Aylesbury (5 miles west), High Wycombe (12 miles south), Chesham (8 miles south-east), Amersham (10 miles south-east), Beaconsfield (14 miles south) and Chalfont St Peter (15 miles south-east).

Diets, allergies and planning

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet

Plan where the queue stands.

A few lights around the van look great.

The process

We need a level, firm place to park the van, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. At midsummer, it’s light in Buckland until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get an access check and a clear price.
  3. On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
  4. Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Clear the route for the van
  • Let us know the serving time

Getting a price

Send us the date, the address or HP22 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you’ll get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

FAQs for Buckland

Which station is closest to Buckland?

The closest is Wendover station, roughly 3.2 miles away.

Is Buckland too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Can the van park on my drive?

It depends on the drive and the access. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll advise.

Do we need to provide equipment?

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

How far ahead should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.

Can you park on the road outside?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, perfect with chips or a sausage.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

  • 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
