Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Northbrook
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
How far is Northbrook from London?
About 56 miles from central London, and well within our area.
When should we book?
As soon as you have a date. Popular dates book up first, so contact us early.
Where can the van park?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.
What happens if it rains?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
Do you need power or water from us?
Let us know about power and water at the house, and we’ll confirm what we need.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
What about guests who do not eat fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Flag any coeliac guests
Put bins and napkins near the hatch.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. A van fries on the spot. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Why us?
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
For planners, venues and organisers
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
