Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Check the street’s parking rules
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
- A photo of the parking spot helps
Have bins and napkins by the van.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
How the day works
On the day, we park up on the agreed spot, set up and heat the fryers. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your party. At midsummer, it’s light in Tattenhoe until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- You get an access check and a clear price.
- On the day, we park up and get the fryers going.

How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Cod, haddock or both
- The date and time of year
- How long we serve
- Access and parking
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Expected numbers
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
About the food
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
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.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Common questions in Tattenhoe
Is Tattenhoe close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London.
We are gathering after a service at St Giles's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
When should we book for a summer party?
Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is generally simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Milton Keynes. Find your area.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Not as standard: batter is usually made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A venue plus caterer can be expensive. With a van, home becomes the venue. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
