Fish and chip van hire across PO14

Fish and chips is the meal almost everyone in Britain knows and likes. It’s why a chip van suits so many occasions. Typical bookings include big birthdays and weddings, especially the evening, serving cod and chips, gravy and haddock and chips.

The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, and we agree exactly where before the day.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

What it costs in PO14

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

What’s near Stubbington

Bookings here are frequently close to The Osborne View pub, Stubbington House School and Crofton Anne Dale Junior School, among other places. You will also find Holy Rood Church (within half a mile east) and Crofton School (0.6 miles east). The closest station to Stubbington is Fareham station, roughly 2.3 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Gosport War Memorial Hospital (3.7 miles south-east) and Carron Row Farm Museum (2.5 miles north). Within reach you’ll find West of the River Alver.

Chip van hire across PO14

PO14 covers everything from Fareham, Stubbington and Locks Heath to 8 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access. 16 of the places we cover in PO14 are within about 6 miles of the sea, where we always think about shelter for the queue.

Stubbington: If you are gathering after a service at a church like Holy Rood Church, a nearby hall car park or drive suits the van. If guests are travelling by rail, Fareham station is about 2.3 miles away. In Stubbington, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.

Should I sort the food myself?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.

What comes out of the fryer

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.

Before you choose a spot

No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:

  • The site’s agreement to a catering van
  • A spot near your guests
  • Light near the van and the queue for evening service

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Looking after everyone

Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:

  • Plan bins near the queue
  • Arrange an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for
  • Tell us how many children are coming
  • Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early

Fish and chips is best eaten right away, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.

Put the menu up by the hatch so people decide while they wait.

PO14 questions

Is there something for children?

Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.

Is there a non-fish option?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

How does fish and chip van hire work?

The van comes to you, fry everything to order, and serve at the time you want.

What do you bring?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.

Can the van park on grass?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Where do you take the van?

London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.

How long does set-up take?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

  • 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
