    Fish and chip van hire across SP5

    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 SP5. Typical bookings include garden parties and summer get-togethers and christmas parties, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

    We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed.

    1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
    2. You hear back on the date and the price.
    3. We agree exactly where the van parks.
    4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
    5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

    Why a fish and chip van works

    It’s familiar, so nobody has to guess what they’re getting, which takes the worry out of feeding a mixed crowd.

    Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:

    • Wakes and celebrations of life
    • Care home visits
    • Milestone birthday parties
    • Company team days

    Diets, allergies and planning

    Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

    • Fewer choices mean faster service
    • Add an allergy question to your invitations
    • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
    • Count children separately

    Once everyone is fed, we pack up, leaving the pitch tidy.

    Tables or benches nearby help people eat comfortably.

    For planners, venues and organisers

    Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

    For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
