What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Autumn and winter parties in Little Wittenham get dark early: about 7:10pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

- Let us know the serving time
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Arrange an alternative if needed
- Confirm allergies by email
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
It’s worth telling the neighbours.
A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
- How easy the site is to reach
- Cod, haddock or both
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your party.

- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
- Roughly how many people, including children
- The spot you have in mind for the van

A closer look at the menu
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.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it is on the menu.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A short walk from the party
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
