About fish and chip van hire in KT6
Keep it simple, or plan every detail: a van that serves as people arrive, or service at a set time. We will recommend what fits. Popular choices include curry sauce, cod and chips and pie and chips, and we are often booked for garden get-togethers and weddings, especially the evening.
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.

A fish and chip van across KT6: what to know
Across KT6, we serve 3 towns and 1 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Surbiton, Chessington and Seething Wells or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level spot, a clear way in and a plan.
Surbiton: For anyone arriving by rail, there’s a station right in Surbiton: Surbiton station. For a fundraiser at a school like Lime Tree Primary School, the van can trade from a pitch agreed with the school. Evenings in Surbiton stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it is dark, we need light by the hatch and the queue.
Events we cater in KT6
It suits relaxed, sociable events, where people can wander up when they’re ready.
If you are planning any of these, we can help:
- Company team days
- Festive get-togethers
- Fêtes, fairs and school events
- Wakes and gatherings after a funeral
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
- Flat, firm ground for the van
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Fewer choices mean faster service
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Plan bins near the queue
- Send allergies to us in writing
You shouldn’t have to worry about the food on the day. We park, set up, fry and serve, and keep in touch with you about timings.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
