Fish and chip van hire across ME7
If the van can park there, we can fry there: a drive, a car park, a yard, a showground or a firm lawn in and around ME7. We are frequently asked to cater company team days and weddings, especially the evening, with pie and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
The van turns up at the agreed time, parks where we agreed and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the space for the van, then send a quote.
- On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
- Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
- We pack up afterwards and leave the spot as we found it.

Planners, venues and businesses
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
