Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.

Common questions in Upper Green
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Michael: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Upper Green too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.
Can the van park on my drive?
Often, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send us a picture and tell us about gates and branches.
Is there a non-fish option?
There is: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Upper Green.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. A good spot ticks these boxes:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Takeaway run or book a van?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
What affects the price in Upper Green
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How far we travel
- The number of meals
- Service time
- Parking and the way in
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
