Party fish and chip van for your party in Nalderswood
For children, there is sausage and chips, so one van feeds the whole party. Whether it is summer garden parties and street parties and neighbourhood events, we can cook curry sauce, mushy peas and pie and chips for your guests.
In a small place like Nalderswood, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.
Step by step
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. In Nalderswood, a June party has light until about 9:20pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Christenings and naming days often start at a local church such as Church of St Bartholomew, with fish and chips at home or in a hall afterwards.
