Party fish and chip van for Pinkneys Green events

About our party fish and chip van in Pinkneys Green

With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. For christenings and naming days and anniversaries and engagement parties, we will put together a menu of cod and chips, curry sauce and haddock and chips for your guests.

Around Pinkneys Green, a garden and a drive is all you need. A chip van fits right in. Everything is fried fresh at your party, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

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.

What a fish and chip van costs

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How many people are eating
  • Parking and the way in
  • Distance and any road charges
  • How long we serve

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • The address or venue name
  • A picture of the parking spot
  • Where you’d like the van to go

The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your party, and we will come back with availability and a quote.

How it works

We arrive on time, parks where we agreed. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. At midsummer, it is light in Pinkneys Green until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates

About the food

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Pinkneys Green questions

We are gathering after a service at Church of St. James the Less: can you come?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Is Pinkneys Green close to London?

About 29 miles from central London, and well within our area.

What do children eat?

Yes. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include them in your numbers.

When should we book?

As soon as you have a date. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Do we need to provide equipment?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

What areas do you cover?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Pinkneys Green.

Can you cook in the rain?

We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.
