About the food

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

How the day works

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can enjoy your party. For a late-May party in Mill Green, sunset is around 8:55pm; at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. If the party runs past dark, the queue and the path to the van need light.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check where the van can park and send a price.
  3. We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
  4. We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
  5. We pack up when we are done and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Planning a party in Mill Green

Mill Green is about 3 miles south of Thatcham, in West Berkshire. Mill Green is well within our area, so your party just needs a date, a spot for the van and a serving time. We take the van to 155 places in West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Reading, about 13 miles away.

A green space like New Greenham Park is tempting, but a catering van there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s. Guests arriving by train should know that the closest railway station is Thatcham station, roughly 2 miles north of the centre.
