Party fish and chip van in Everton, cooked to order
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. We serve cod and chips, haddock and chips and gravy, and we’re regularly asked to cater naming days and christenings and big birthdays.
A country party near Everton is perfect for fish and chips: fried fresh and eaten outside. Plan a firm spot in case it rains. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the service time and the menu.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.
Space, access and the venue
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. A van fries on the spot. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

Questions from Everton
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you come to venues in the New Forest National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
How soon do we need to book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
Can you park at our house?
Frequently, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Can you do something for the children?
Sausage and chips, generally. Let us know numbers and ages.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
What do you need at the house?
A suitable spot for the van, mainly. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
