About our party fish and chip van in Mullenspond
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. Popular choices include curry sauce, pie and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater summer garden parties and neighbourhood get-togethers.
In a small place like Mullenspond, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the route. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Planning help
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Send allergies to us in writing
- A photo of the parking spot helps
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
Have bins and napkins by the van.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.

Common questions in Mullenspond
How far is Mullenspond from London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Mullenspond too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is there a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.
Can you serve children?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Can the van park on grass?
Normally, if it is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
Can the van come to our street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What affects the price in Mullenspond
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of meals
- How long we serve
- How far we travel
- The menu and how many choices
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.
