For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Party venues around Ryeish Green
Ryeish Green is about 3 miles south of Reading, in West Berkshire. People in Ryeish Green book us for all sorts of reasons, but it always starts the same way: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. We cover all 155 towns and villages across West Berkshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
A christening at St Michael and All Angels followed by fish and chips on the drive is a simple, popular plan. If you had Pearman's Copse in mind, ask the council or landowner first: vans can’t simply park up and serve in a public park.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we’re hot, we cook to order, timed around your party. A summer party in Ryeish Green stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Should I sort the food myself?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
