About our party fish and chip van in Crondall
It feels like a treat, but stays relaxed: fish and chips from the van, eaten in the garden. We serve mushy peas, curry sauce and sausage and chips, and we’re often booked for anniversary celebrations and milestone birthdays.
In a small place like Crondall, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.
What comes out of the fryer
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.

How the day works
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, and chips are fried in batches through service. At midsummer, it’s light in Crondall until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Let us know the serving time
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Questions from Crondall
Can you serve after a service at Church of All Saints?
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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Which station is closest to Crondall?
The closest is Farnham station, roughly 3.3 miles away.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.
What if we only have street parking?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
What does the van need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
Do we need to provide anything?
A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Mention power and water and we’ll confirm the rest.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.
