Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in South Nutfield
We are gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you come?
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. Send us the address.
How far is South Nutfield from London?
Roughly 19 miles from the centre of London.
Do you need power or water from us?
Let us know about power and water at the house, and we will say what we need.
What do children eat?
Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include them in your numbers.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Tell us about your party and we will send a quote.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
