Events we cater in North Moreton
People book a chip van for parties because nobody has to cook. And it’s fun.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:
- Family reunions
- Milestone birthdays
- Christenings and naming days
- Neighbourhood get-togethers
After a christening at a church like Church of All Saints, a chip van at home is an easy way to feed family and friends.
Before booking anyone
- How many hours the van serves
- Allergen information for each item
- What happens if plans change
- The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. A summer party in North Moreton stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get an access check and a clear price.
- We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Tell us when you want to eat

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Mention the van to neighbours
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- A picture of the parking spot helps
We park on the agreed spot and set up, then serve as guests come up.
A few lights around the van look great.
Questions from North Moreton
Can you serve after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like North Moreton?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Is there a kids’ option?
Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Will the van fit on our drive?
That depends on the space and the route in. Tell us about gates, slopes and overhead branches, and we’ll advise.
Do you do street parties?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How early do summer dates go?
Summer weekends go first. Contact us with your date.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is typically made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we will explain the options before booking.

About the food
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
For event organisers in North Moreton
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Numbers
- Distance and any road charges
- Parking and the way in
- Whether a minimum applies
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your party.
What we need to know
To check availability and price, we need:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where the event is
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
What we serve
- Curry sauce
- Sausage and chips
- Gravy
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Chips
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
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 generally simpler.
