How fish and chip van hire works in RH7

We keep the menu to the classics: fish and chips, sausages and pies, plus the sides everyone expects. Fewer choices means fresher food and shorter waits. We’re frequently asked to cater garden parties and summer get-togethers and weddings, especially the evening, serving sausage and chips, haddock and chips and gravy.

From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your event.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

Fish and chip van hire in RH7: local guide

Across RH7, we serve 3 towns and 6 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Lingfield, Dormansland and Blindley Heath to a quiet hamlet: firm ground, access and agreed timings.

Lingfield: Within reach of Lingfield are historic houses such as Hammerwood Park (4.5 miles south-east) and Saint Hill Manor (4.9 miles south). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on vehicles and caterers early. Churches such as Church of St Peter and St Paul rarely have room for a van, but a hall or home close by normally does. Planning an evening event in Lingfield? Sunset is around 8:50pm in late May, 9:20pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.

Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.

Questions from RH7

Do you fry it on site?

It is. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Can you cater for allergies?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, including Surrey. See all areas.

Do we need to provide anything?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will confirm what we need.

Can fish and chips be the only food?

It is a full meal on its own. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is typically easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

When do you arrive?

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