A chip van near Whitchurch

How our party fish and chip van works in Whitchurch

Everything is cooked as people come up, rather than sitting on a buffet table all afternoon. We are frequently asked to cater get-togethers with old friends and big birthdays, serving haddock and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.

Near Whitchurch, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

  • A menu almost everyone likes
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • We cover Whitchurch and the whole of Buckinghamshire

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Planning the van’s spot

The van has to be able to get in and park safely, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Space for people to queue at the hatch

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Popular choices

  • Curry sauce
  • Cod and chips
  • Haddock and chips
  • Gravy
  • Sausage and chips
  • Chips
  • Pie and chips
  • Mushy peas
