Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A spot near your guests
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Can’t 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.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
The menu, dish by dish
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. A summer party in Cranbourne stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
