Party fish and chip van in Moortown, cooked to order
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. We serve pie and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for retirement celebrations and street parties.
Near Moortown, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Questions from Moortown
Do you come out to small places like Moortown?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at St. Mary's Church: can you come?
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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
What do you need at the house?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.
Do you cover Moortown?
Yes, we do. We serve events in Moortown and across the Isle of Wight. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:
- Distance and any road charges
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Cod, haddock or both
- The minimum booking
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. We set everything out in your quote.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A photo of the space and the way in
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
How the day works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. In Moortown, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:10pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
