About our party fish and chip van in Sandhurst

Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers suit a chip van too, with the right permissions in place. We’re frequently asked to cater street parties and family reunions, serving haddock and chips, curry sauce and gravy.

In Sandhurst, home and the local hall are popular party venues. A chip van suits either, as long as there is a spot outside. Everything is fried fresh at your party, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

A chip van compared with other options

Compared with cooking a barbecue yourself, a chip van means nobody is stuck at the grill. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

Why us?

  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Events in Sandhurst and across Bracknell Forest
  • Quick service from the hatch
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather

Common questions in Sandhurst

We are gathering after a service at St George's Church: can you come?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

How far is Sandhurst from London?

About 32 miles from central London.

Which areas do you serve?

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

Can you serve children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

How far ahead should we book a party?

Summer weekends go first. Ask about your date.

Do you do street parties?

Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Tell the council about the van.

Can the van come to Sandhurst?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, including Sandhurst and the rest of Bracknell Forest. For a quote, use our quote form.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

About the food

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.

Prices and what affects them

We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • How many people are eating
  • The day of the week
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Distance and any road charges

Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

What we need to know

The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Expected numbers
  • The spot you have in mind for the van

To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your party in Sandhurst, and we’ll check the date and send a price.

Looking after everyone

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • Flag any coeliac guests
  • Show us where the van would go
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
  • Mention the van to neighbours

It is worth telling the neighbours.

Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.

How to compare vans

Planners, venues and businesses

Organising a club, school or community event in Sandhurst? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we will suggest how it could work.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

How it works

You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. Autumn and winter parties in Sandhurst get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit spot for the van helps.

  1. First, tell us about your party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Before we arrive

  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
