Party fish and chip van for your party in Frogham
Food is fried to order, so it’s hot and crisp, not left out on a table for hours. We’re frequently asked to cater big birthdays and family celebrations after a christening, serving sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
A country party near Frogham is perfect for fish and chips: fried fresh and eaten outside. Plan a firm spot in case it rains. We cook inside the van, right where your guests are, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.
The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Where the van can park in Frogham
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- A spot near your guests
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hiring a hall and a caterer adds up. A van on the drive keeps it simple. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

How the day works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your party. The frying and serving are down to us. Autumn and winter parties in Frogham get dark early: about 7:00pm in late September and 3:50pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Share the timings for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Ensure the van can get in

Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The menu and how many choices
- The day of the week
- Whether a minimum applies
- How many people are eating
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Anything awkward about the way in
Each quote is put together for your party. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
