About fish and chip van hire in KT18
Fish and chips is the meal almost everyone in Britain knows and likes. That’s why a van works for so many kinds of event. On the menu are curry sauce, haddock and chips and cod and chips, and we’re frequently booked for summer garden parties and weddings and evening receptions.

- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.

Takeaway run or book a van?
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 generally simpler.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planning for dietary needs
Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Arrange an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- A short menu helps everyone
- Plan bins near the queue
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive in good time, set up, cook and serve, and stay in touch about any changes.
A string of bunting by the van makes a lovely photo.
Working with your venue
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
