Party fish and chip van in Passfield
Party fish and chip van for your party in Passfield
Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers suit a chip van too, with the right permissions in place. On the menu are gravy, mushy peas and sausage and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater family reunions and kids’ birthday parties.
In a small place like Passfield, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and parking, and we will plan the route. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
About the food
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- The date and time of year
- Any minimum charge
- Service time
- Numbers
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The address or venue name
- The date and time of the event
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you’ll get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Larger groups normally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What the van needs

- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:

- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
Put bins and napkins near the hatch.
