Party fish and chip van in Wheatley, fried fresh
With a chip van, the host gets to enjoy the party too. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. We serve pie and chips, gravy and haddock and chips, and we are regularly asked to cater naming days and christenings and summer garden parties.
In a place like Wheatley, a party at home is typically the easiest option. Let us know how the van reaches the house, and we’ll do the rest. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we are up and running.

How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand. Sunset in Wheatley drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

Wheatley questions
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.

About 48 miles from central London.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Wheatley?
A hog roast is pork only, while a chip van gives people a choice. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Why us?
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- Quick service from the hatch
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
