A fish and chip van across SP10: what to know
SP10 covers everything from Andover, Picket Twenty and Finkley Down to 5 small villages and hamlets, and the van works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning parking; village bookings mean planning access.
Andover: For guests coming by train, Andover station is about 0.5 miles away. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School, a chip van is a crowd-pleaser. Late September evenings in Andover lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van

- Add an allergy question to your invitations
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We park, set up, fry and serve, and stay in touch about any changes.

What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips

Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
