Fish and chip van hire across RG40

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 RG40. We are often asked to cater evening wedding food and garden parties and summer get-togethers, serving pie and chips, cod and chips and mushy peas.

We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Guests generally gather round the hatch as soon as we open.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive in good time, park up and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried fresh and handed over from the hatch.
  5. Afterwards, we clear up and head off.

Chip van hire across RG40

RG40 covers everything from Crowthorne, Arborfield Garrison and Emmbrook to 9 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.

Wokingham: Coming by train? There is a station right in Wokingham: Wokingham station. For a christening or celebration after a service at a church such as Church of St Paul, the van can serve at a hall or home nearby. Evening events need a little planning for light: around Wokingham, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.

Comparing caterers

  • The service time, and the cost of running over
  • A clear list of what’s included
  • The minimum number of meals or minimum spend
  • The cancellation terms

For planners, venues and organisers

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

Who books fish and chip van hire?

There’s no kitchen needed, so it works on drives, car parks and showgrounds where other catering struggles.

If you’re planning any of these, we can help:

  • Festive get-togethers
  • Community events and fairs
  • Care home visits
  • Staff lunches and team days

What affects the price in RG40

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • The day of the week
  • How many people are eating
  • Distance and any road charges

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Expected numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Dietary needs, with numbers

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

About the food

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there is sausage and chips, and children love it.

RG40 questions

How long are you on site?

That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

How much is fish and chip van hire?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time for a clear quote.

How do you handle allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

Is the fish gluten-free?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

Do we need to provide anything?
