How our party fish and chip van works in Charlbury
It feels like a treat, but stays relaxed: fish and chips from the van, eaten in the garden. We serve cod and chips, gravy and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater milestone birthdays and reunions and family get-togethers.
For a party in Charlbury, home is often the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the lane, and we will do the rest. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Charlbury questions
Is Charlbury close to London?
About 65 miles from central London.
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
How early do summer dates go?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.
Where do you take the van?
We cover London and the South East, including Oxfordshire. See all areas.
