The process
Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. A summer party in North Looe stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in North Looe
Which station is closest to North Looe?
The closest is Epsom Downs station, roughly 0.7 miles away.
Do you come out to small places like North Looe?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Do we need to provide anything?
Let us know about power and water at the house, and we will confirm what we need.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Diets, allergies and planning
Allergies are taken seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Let your neighbours know
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Confirm allergies by email
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
