About the food

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.

Organising for someone else?

Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It keeps things simple.

Questions from Muddles Green

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Is Muddles Green too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

Can you do something for the children?

Sausage and chips, normally. Tell us how many children to expect.

How much space do you need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.

How far ahead should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.

Is everything cooked fresh?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • The day of the week
  • Any minimum charge
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Parking and the way in

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Where you’d like the van to go

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, use our quote form.

Takeaway run or book a van?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

How it works

We don’t cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. Autumn and winter parties in Muddles Green get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Name one person we can call on the day

How to get a price

Still finalising the details? That’s fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. To start, fill in our quote form.
