How our party fish and chip van works in Westerton
Everything is cooked as people come up, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. We serve curry sauce, cod and chips and sausage and chips, and typical bookings are for garden get-togethers and retirement parties.
Country parties near Westerton suit a chip van: cooked to order and eaten on the lawn. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your party, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Can you serve children?

Can the van come to our street party?
Yes, where the council allows it. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.

Other occasions in Westerton
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. 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.
The process
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. Sunset in Westerton is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June. After dark, light the area around the van.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Clear the route for the van
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Keep the queue away from the road if the van is on the drive.
A sign by the hatch with the menu speeds things up.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A hog roast is one dish, while a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Why us?
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
