What happens on the day

We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Murston drops to about 7:00pm by late September and 3:50pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

Party fish and chip van for your party in Murston

Guests who don’t know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. On the menu are curry sauce, sausage and chips and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater street parties and naming days and christenings.

For a party in Murston, home is often the best venue. Let us know how the van reaches the house, and we will do the rest. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:

  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
  • Give us separate numbers for children
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Confirm allergies by email

It’s worth telling the neighbours, or invite them.

A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.

What the van needs

The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Popular choices

  • Gravy

What comes out of the fryer

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.

For planners, venues and organisers

Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.

Compared with cooking a barbecue yourself, a chip van means nobody is stuck at the grill. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
