Party fish and chip van in Longwick
How our party fish and chip van works in Longwick
Everything is cooked as people come up, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. Popular choices include curry sauce, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater anniversary celebrations and naming days and christenings.
For a party in Longwick, home is often the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the lane, and we will bring everything else. Timings are planned around your party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
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.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The date and time of year
- Parking and the way in
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The minimum booking
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What we need to know
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- The address or venue name
- Dietary needs, with numbers
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. For a quote, use our quote form.
Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Longwick
Is Longwick close to London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Longwick?
The closest is Monks Risborough station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will take it from there.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
