Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Andrew, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Space, access and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- A short walk from the party
- Lighting nearby for evening events
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly before you book.
From the hatch
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips
- Gravy
- Cod and chips
- Chips
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
For planners, venues and organisers
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Ask guests about allergies when they reply
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- A photo of the parking spot helps
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
Have bins and napkins by the van.
Plan cover in case of showers.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Meonstoke?
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- Quick service from the hatch
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- Bookings across Hampshire, including Meonstoke
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How long we serve
- Your choice of menu
- Access and parking
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Expected numbers
- Your date and serving time
- Any dietary needs and allergies
