A chip van compared with other options

Common questions in Dinton
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Dinton close to London?
Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the van park on my drive?
Often, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
When should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Where do you take the van?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
How fast is service?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Service time
- How far we travel
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.

About the food
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
The process
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. A summer party in Dinton stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- 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.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

Planning help
Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Mention the van to neighbours
- Show us where the van would go
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Make sure the van can park legally
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in, before the cake.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
