Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which helps if some guests do not eat pork.
