A fish and chip van or other catering?
Next to a DIY barbecue, a chip van means nobody is stuck at the grill. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Why Hearnden Green hosts choose us
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- No kitchen needed
- A clear quote before booking
Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Planning the van’s spot
The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

Planning for dietary needs

Keep the queue away from the road.
Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
