About our party fish and chip van in Stalisfield Green
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. We park up, fry to order and hand it over hot. We’re frequently asked to cater family reunions and milestone birthdays, serving cod and chips, sausage and chips and gravy.
Country parties near Stalisfield Green suit a chip van: fried fresh and eaten outside. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your party, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

The menu, dish by dish
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Step by step
We arrive on time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts right on schedule. In Stalisfield Green, a June party has light until about 9:15pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:00pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you’re eating late.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Let us know the serving time

What affects the price in Stalisfield Green
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many people are eating
- The minimum booking
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
The cost per head normally 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.
What to tell us
The more we know about your party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where the van would park
- Your date and serving time
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can use our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
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.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We look for:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- The site’s agreement to a catering van

Stalisfield Green: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Stalisfield Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary?
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.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Can you do something for the children?
Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Start the road closure application early.
Do you need power or water from us?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.
