Party fish and chip van for Cufaude events
Party fish and chip van in Cufaude, cooked to order
Sausage and chips covers the children and anyone who doesn’t want fish, so one van feeds the whole party. For family reunions and big birthdays, we can cook sausage and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips and more.
A country party near Cufaude is perfect for fish and chips: fried fresh and eaten outside. Plan a firm spot in case it rains. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
What affects the price in Cufaude
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Distance and any road charges
- Parking and the way in
- Any minimum charge

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so tell us exactly where your party is.

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
How the day works
The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. In Cufaude, a June party has light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:10pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you’re eating late.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
