Fish and chip van hire across GU26

If the van can park there, we can fry there: a drive, a car park, a yard, a showground or a firm lawn. Typical bookings include milestone birthday parties and weddings, especially the evening, with gravy, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, which we agree with you beforehand.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Fish and chip van hire in GU26: local guide

GU26 covers everything from Shottermill, Grayshott and Beacon Hill to 6 small villages and hamlets, and a chip van suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan parking and access; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground. Parts of GU26 are within a few miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so check venue rules on vehicles for countryside events.

If guests are travelling by rail, Haslemere station, about 2.2 miles south-east, is the nearest station. Planning an evening event in Grayshott?

How we price a fish and chip van

We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Distance and any road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Service time
  • Parking and the way in

Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • A picture of the parking spot
  • The date and time of the event
  • Expected numbers
  • Where the event is

Send us the date, the address or GU26 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Takeaway run or book a van?

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. 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.

Occasions we serve in GU26

It needs no kitchen, so it works on drives, car parks and showgrounds where plated meals are hard.

The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:

  • Company team days
  • Fish and chip days at care homes
  • Weddings, especially the evening
  • Birthday celebrations

Space, access and the venue

We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A short walk from the party
  • Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

GU26 questions

What do you bring?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

What if the weather’s bad?

Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

Is there something for children?

Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will include them in the plan.

What about guests who don’t eat fish?

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

How long will the queue be?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.

Can the van park on grass?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

How far ahead should we book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so it pays to ask early.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
