Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van gives people a choice. The cost per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Common questions in Sedrup
How far is Sedrup from London?
About 38 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Which station is closest to Sedrup?
The closest is Aylesbury station, roughly 1.7 miles away.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Is there something for children?
Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What about guests who don’t eat fish?
Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.
Do you need power or water?
Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for guests are worth planning.
The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your party. We handle the cooking and serving. Midsummer parties in Sedrup stay bright until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact for the day
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Planning help
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- Send us a picture of the drive
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
Let the neighbours know the van is coming.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce
