How it works
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. In Boundstone, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening fish and chips is frequently served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 4:00pm.

Boundstone: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Boundstone?
Farnham station, about 1.7 miles north-east of the centre.
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
When should evening food go out?
Most couples choose between 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done. We will fit your running order.
What does the van need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you’re not sure.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
Can the van come to Boundstone?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Boundstone is within our area. To check your date, use our quote form.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Not every evening guest eats: ask us how many to plan for
- Have bins ready for paper and trays
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Arrange an alternative for anyone who can’t eat from the van
We arrive and set up without getting in the way, so the fryers are hot when you’re ready.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
What the van needs
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A short walk from the party
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
