Party fish and chip van for Chalfont St Giles events
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Everything is cooked as people come up, not left out on a table for hours. Popular choices include gravy, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for family celebrations after a christening and garden get-togethers.
