Do you come out to small places like Burcott?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

We serve 263 places across Buckinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Milton Keynes, about 14 miles away.
Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St James, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards. Burcott is within about 6 miles of the Chilterns National Landscape, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.
Here we cover the HP22 postcode area. From Burcott Lane and Marshalls Lea or anywhere nearby, we can park up and fry there.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
- 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
