Your questions about a fish and chip van for your party in Walliswood
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St John the Baptist: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Do you cover Walliswood?
We do. We serve events in Walliswood and across Surrey. Tell us your date and we’ll check availability.
What do you need at the house?
Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we’ll say what we need.
Do you do anything other than fish?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will tell you what we can offer.
Can you come to a street party?
Yes, once the council has agreed the closure. Mention the van in your application.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
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.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Before you choose a spot
We’ll be honest if a spot won’t work. What matters most:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A short walk from the party
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the hatch
- Haddock and chips
- Curry sauce

- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips

For event organisers in Walliswood
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
Is a fish and chip van right for your party?
A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van gives people a choice. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your party is.
Why us?
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Bookings across Surrey, including Walliswood
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Served hot, straight from the hatch
