What comes out of the fryer
Sausage and chips

Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Common questions in Sulhamstead Abbots
Which station is closest to Sulhamstead Abbots?
The closest is Theale station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
How far is Sulhamstead Abbots from London?
About 43 miles from central London.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can you cater for allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
What if the weather’s bad?
We cook inside the van, so rain does not stop us. Guests will appreciate cover near the hatch.
What affects the price in Sulhamstead Abbots
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- Parking and the way in
- Cod, haddock or both
- The length of service
- The date and time of year
Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Where the event is
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Your date and serving time
Still finalising the details? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll quote on that. To start, fill in our quote form.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
Planning an event for a club, school or charity in Sulhamstead Abbots? Fish and chips is a reliable crowd-pleaser. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Count children separately
- Plan something for guests whose needs we can’t meet
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Show us where the van would go
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in.
Plan cover in case of showers.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
