Our fish and chip van hire in RG22

The queue at the hatch is part of the fun. People gather, catch up and get their food straight from the fryer. We’re often asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and company team days, serving curry sauce, pie and chips and mushy peas.

If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your event.

First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
We check availability and access and send a clear quote.
On the day, we park on the agreed spot and set up.
We cook to order and serve hot at the time you chose.
When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

What it costs in RG22

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.

Kempshott: If guests are travelling by rail, the nearest station is Basingstoke station, about 2.8 miles north-east. Among the historic houses close to Kempshott are The Vyne (4.9 miles north-east). Historic venues often limit vehicles, so ask early if you’re booking one.

A chip van compared with other options

Ordering a takeaway for a crowd means long waits and food that cools on the journey. The van cooks right there, so the batter is still crisp.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

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.

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.

Which fish do you use?

Can you cook in the rain?
