Party fish and chip van for your party in Chithurst
You don’t need to hire a hall: a chip van on the drive turns your home into the venue. For leaving parties and milestone birthdays, we can cook pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.
Near Chithurst, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll handle the rest. Everything is fried fresh at your party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
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.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
A chip van compared with other options
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. A van on the drive keeps it simple. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why book with us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Questions from Chithurst
We’re gathering after a service at Chithurst Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Chithurst?
Liphook station, about 4.9 miles north of the centre.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Show us where the van would go
- Tell us how many children are coming
We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.
Put the menu up by the van.
Can’t 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.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
How it works
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Chithurst drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Preparing for the day
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
