How fish and chip van hire works in OX39

The van needs no kitchen, no hall and no crockery. All it needs is a level spot it can reach, which suits drives, yards, car parks and firm lawns. We’re often asked to cater evening wedding food and summer garden parties, serving haddock and chips, sausage and chips and cod and chips.

Here’s how the day generally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. You hear back on the date and the price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Questions from OX39

How fast is service?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

What if the weather’s bad?

We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Children usually love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

What do you bring?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

Can you go on a lawn or field?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we will advise.

  • 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
