15 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. Sunset in Russell's Green drops to about 7:00pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Get permission for the van from the venue

Related guides

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

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.

Common questions in Russell's Green

Which station is closest to Russell's Green?

Cooden Beach station, about 2.9 miles south of the centre.

Can you serve after a service at The Parish 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. Send us the address.

Do you take everything away?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

How early do summer dates go?

Summer Saturdays book up first, so ask early.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

Can you park at our house?

Typically, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send a picture of the drive and the way in.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

What’s on the menu?

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

What a fish and chip van costs

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The length of service
  • The number of meals
  • How far we travel

Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

What to tell us

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the van would park
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.

Food your guests will love

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.

Curry sauce

Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.

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’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
