Party fish and chip van in Laverstoke, cooked to order
It feels like a treat, but stays relaxed: paper portions of fish and chips in the garden. We serve haddock and chips, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and we are frequently booked for naming days and christenings and neighbourhood get-togethers.
Near Laverstoke, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the route. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

What else we do in Laverstoke
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

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 tell you honestly.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Count children separately
We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.
A few lights around the van look great.
Step by step
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests typically gather round the hatch as soon as we open. Autumn and winter parties in Laverstoke get dark early: about 7:10pm in late September and 4:00pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Give us a contact for the day

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
- 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
