Party fish and chip van in Pamber Green, cooked to order
It’s a treat that feels special without being formal: paper portions of fish and chips in the garden. For garden parties and summer get-togethers and children’s parties, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, haddock and chips and gravy.
Near Pamber Green, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we’ll plan the route. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- Service time
- The minimum booking
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How far we travel
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Sunset in Pamber Green drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture 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.

Takeaway run or book a van?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Looking after everyone
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
We park on the agreed spot and set up, then serve as guests come up.
Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
