About the food

Gravy

A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Frilford Heath

Is Frilford Heath too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Frilford Heath from London?

Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Is grass a problem?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.

When do you arrive?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so get in touch early.

What areas do you cover?

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

How do you handle allergies?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.

Step by step

On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your party. Sunset in Frilford Heath drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will 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. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Clear the route for the van

Planning help

Organising for someone else?

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.

Where the van can park in Frilford Heath

Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:

  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A level, firm spot the van can drive onto

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party

There is nothing hidden: the quote reflects:

  • Any minimum charge
  • Numbers
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How far we travel

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

Details that help

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you’re ready, send us your details through our quote form.

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Let your neighbours know

When everyone has eaten, we pack up and leave the drive tidy.

A few lights around the van look great.
