The van has to be able to get in and park safely, so a few things need checking. These are the things we check:

  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Gravy

In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.

Should I sort the food myself?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

Common questions in Littleworth

How far is Littleworth from London?

Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London.

Can you serve after a service at St Michael and All Angels Church?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Do you cover Littleworth?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Littleworth and the rest of West Sussex. For a quote, fill in our quote form.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

How long does set-up take?

We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.

Do we need to provide equipment?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Do you do street parties?

Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.

Can you park at our house?

Often, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a photo and tell us about gates and branches.

Looking after everyone

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Let your neighbours know
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.

Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.

  • 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
