Party fish and chip van for your party in Loxford
For children, there’s sausage and chips, so one van feeds the whole party. For summer garden parties and street parties, we can cook gravy, sausage and chips and haddock and chips for your guests.
Throwing a party in Loxford? A van means no cooking for you, and works on drives, in yards and at hired halls. Tell us about parking permits. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Organising for someone else?
Having the party at home? Send us a photo of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
How it works
Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it is as fresh as from any chip shop. In Loxford, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know the serving time
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Looking after everyone
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- Send us a picture of the drive
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
With children, food about an hour in works well.
Finish with the birthday cake.
