What happens on the day
Here’s how the day usually runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you are ready to eat. A summer party in Wigginton stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.

Wigginton questions
How far is Wigginton from London?
About 67 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at Church of Saint Giles: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.
When do you arrive?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
How much does a fish and chip van for your party cost in Wigginton?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Can the van come to our street party?
Frequently, yes. Check your council’s rules on road closures and vehicles early.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Planning the van’s spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- A spot near your guests
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

About the food
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
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 from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
What affects the price in Wigginton
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Service time
- Numbers
