Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Lavendon
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Michael?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Lavendon too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
When should we book for a summer party?
Weekends from May to September are busiest, so it pays to ask early.
How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Lavendon?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your party and we’ll send a quote.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.
What do we need to supply?
Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we’ll say what we need.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
How long does set-up take?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance.
Who books party fish and chip van in Lavendon?

- Family celebrations after a christening

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Ensure the van can park legally
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
We arrive, park up and heat the fryers, then serve as guests come up.
A few lights around the van look great.
- 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
