Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Show us where the van would go
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Put bins and napkins near the hatch.

Put the menu up by the van.

Is a fish and chip van right for your party?

A buffet is easy but forgettable. A chip van gives guests something to talk about. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.

Why book our van in Madley Park

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • No kitchen needed
  • Hot food handed straight over

Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.

The menu, dish by dish

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.

Gravy

Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Madley Park

Is Madley Park close to London?

About 62 miles from central London.

Can you serve after a service at Church of Holy Trinity?

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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.

What do we need to supply?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.

What happens if it rains?

The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

How do you handle allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.

What do you bring?

All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Why choose party fish and chip van in Madley Park?

It is a real treat for guests, and it gets people talking.

The van suits big events and small ones. Common bookings include:

  • Garden parties and summer get-togethers
  • Family parties with children
  • Family reunions
  • Naming days and christenings

Nearby historic houses include Minster Lovell Hall (2.9 miles west). If you’re hiring a historic venue for a big birthday, check its rules on catering vans first.

Our booking checklist

Step by step

We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. For a late-May party in Madley Park, sunset is around 9:00pm; at midsummer it is about 9:30pm. After dark, light the area around the van.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Let us know the serving time

Ask for a quote

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and we will reply with a quote. Just use our quote form.
