Party fish and chip van in Domewood

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Party fish and chip van in Domewood, fried fresh

Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers suit a chip van too, with the right permissions in place. On the menu are curry sauce, haddock and chips and pie and chips, and we’re frequently booked for summer garden parties and kids’ birthday parties.

In a small place like Domewood, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will handle the rest. We plan the timings around your day, whether that’s a first dance, a lunch break or a service time.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Domewood: your questions answered

Is Domewood close to London?

Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Domewood?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Tell us what’s available and we’ll take it from there.

What do children eat?

Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include them in your numbers.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.

Does the batter contain gluten?

No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.

Where can the van park?

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.

Among the historic houses close to Domewood are Saint Hill Manor (3.5 miles south-east) and Gravetye Manor (3.9 miles south).

Step by step

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. At midsummer, it’s light in Domewood until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Allergies and dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Send us a picture of the drive

When everyone has eaten, we pack up.

A few lights around the van look great.

What the van needs

We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. The main points are:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

From the hatch

  • Gravy
  • Pie and chips
  • Curry sauce
  • Cod and chips

How we price a fish and chip van for your party

The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:

  • Numbers
  • Service time
  • Your choice of menu
  • Any minimum charge

Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Each quote is put together for your party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
