Is grass a problem?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do we need to provide equipment?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
What do you need at the house?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we’ll take it from there.
Planners, venues and businesses
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Chalkshire? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
How the day works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Sunset in Chalkshire drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Tell us when you want to eat
Ask for a quote
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can fill in our quote form.

A chip van compared with other options
Compared with cooking a barbecue yourself, the host isn’t stuck cooking all afternoon. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why us?
- Bookings across Buckinghamshire, including Chalkshire

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. 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
