South Ascot: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Church of All Souls?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you trade in Silwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
Can the van come to South Ascot?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and South Ascot is within our area and the rest of Windsor and Maidenhead. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
When should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth planning some cover for the queue.
How much space do you need?
A level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A takeaway order for a party takes ages and arrives lukewarm. The van cooks right there. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
