A fish and chip van across GU9: what to know
From Farnham, Lower Bourne and Upper Hale to 6 villages and hamlets, bookings across GU9 range from town-centre sites to farmyards, and the van works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.
Farnham: For a christening or celebration after a service at a church such as St Joan of Arc's Church, the van can serve at a hall or home nearby. Within reach of Farnham are historic houses such as Farnham Castle (0.6 miles north-west). Historic venues frequently limit vehicles, so ask early if you are booking one. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Farnham, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting by the hatch.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Barbecues cook in batches, and someone has to stand over the grill. With a van, the host gets to enjoy the day.

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
