Our fish and chip van hire in CV35
There is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which suits drives, yards, car parks and firm lawns. We serve curry sauce, mushy peas and cod and chips, and we are frequently booked for festive get-togethers and community events and fairs.
The first sign we’ve arrived is generally the smell. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up and get the fryers hot.
- We fry to order and serve from the hatch at the agreed time.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.
What you will pay
The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.
Why hosts in CV35 choose us
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site

Chip van hire across CV35
There are 1 towns and 1 villages and hamlets in CV35, so the setting can be anything from Edgehill to a quiet hamlet: firm ground, access and agreed timings.
Edgehill: If you are gathering after a service at a church like Church of St Peter, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. Nearby historic houses include Upton House (1 mile south) and Farnborough Hall (3.7 miles east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on vehicles and caterers early. By late September, sunset in Edgehill is around 7:10pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the queue.
Planning the van’s spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A spot near your guests
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
Why a fish and chip van works
It needs no kitchen, so it works on drives, car parks and showgrounds where plated meals are hard.
Whatever the occasion in CV35, fish and chips from the hatch goes down well. We regularly serve:
- Garden parties and summer get-togethers
- Weddings and evening receptions
- Festive get-togethers
- Wakes and celebrations of life
Looking after everyone
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Have bins and napkins near the hatch
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
- Have a back-up for anyone who cannot eat from the van
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
It helps to have bins and napkins by the van.
Bunting or festoon lights around the van make it part of the decorations.
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
The menu, dish by dish
