Fresh fish and chips in Lower Brailes

Party fish and chip van in Lower Brailes, cooked to order

A chip van also works for street parties, with the right permissions in place. For family celebrations after a christening and garden parties and summer get-togethers, we can cook mushy peas, cod and chips and haddock and chips.

Near Lower Brailes, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.

Lower Brailes questions

Do you come out to small places like Lower Brailes?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you serve after a service at Church of St George?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Do you do street parties?

Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Can the van park on my drive?

That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll tell you honestly.

What can guests choose from?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Is there something for children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we’ll plan for them.

Can the van come to Lower Brailes?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Lower Brailes is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.

  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Somewhere close to where people will eat

Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
  • Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
  • Show us where the van would go
  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

Finish with the birthday cake.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What you get with us

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • Rain does not stop the fryers
  • Something for guests to gather round

Read how we price or what a fish and chip van costs.

What affects the price in Lower Brailes

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The number of meals
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

What to tell us

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Where the van would park
  • Your date and serving time
  • A picture of where the van would go
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

How the day works

The first sign we have arrived is normally the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Sunset in Lower Brailes drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

How to prepare

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

How to get a price

15 questions to ask before you book

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
