A fish and chip van or other catering?
Next to a DIY barbecue, the host isn’t stuck cooking all afternoon. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Organising for someone else?
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
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.
How it works
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. Sunset in Littleton drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check access for the van and send a quote.
- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of where the van would go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can fill in our quote form.

We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:

- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
We park on the agreed spot and set up, and serve as the party carries on.
Plan cover in case of showers.

Questions from Littleton
Do you come out to small places like Littleton?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is Littleton close to London?
About 17 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Which areas do you serve?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Littleton.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
Do you cover Littleton?
We do. Littleton is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
