The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot when you’re ready to eat. A summer party in Kempshott stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Kempshott questions
How far is Kempshott from London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
Can you serve after a service at Saint Mark's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you need power or water from us?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll confirm what we need.
What food do you serve?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options before booking.
Do you come to Kempshott?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Kempshott and the rest of Hampshire. To check your date, use our quote form.
Will the van fit on our drive?
That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we will advise.
