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 do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Tell us how many children are coming
- Let your neighbours know
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Put allergy details in writing
Plan where the queue stands if the van is on the drive.
Your own cake makes the perfect finish.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Midsummer parties in Toddington stay bright until about 9:20pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. 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’ll confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- 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
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Toddington: your questions answered
Is Toddington close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Toddington?
The closest is Littlehampton station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Do you do street parties?
Yes, where the council allows it. Start the road closure application early.
Can you park at our house?
Typically, if the drive is level and firm and the van can get in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Can the van park on the street?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
