Working with your venue
If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Middlegreen: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at St Mary the Virgin Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the van park in Ditton Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cook in the rain?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
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 advise.
How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Middlegreen?
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers for a clear quote.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
When should we book for a summer party?
As early as you can for summer weekends. Contact us with your date.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
A closer look at the menu
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
