DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
Hill End: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Hill End?
The closest is Rickmansworth station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
How far is Hill End from London?
Roughly 19 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Do you do evening food for weddings?
Evening food is exactly what we do. We’ll fit around your first dance and band.
Where will the van go at our venue?
Generally, with the venue’s agreement and firm ground. We will agree the spot in advance.
How long will the queue be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.
Can you cook in the rain?
We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The date and time of year
- Whether a minimum applies
- Access and parking
- Cod, haddock or both
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- The date and time of the event
- The address or venue name
- A photo of the space and the way in
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. To get started, send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out at the time you asked for. In Hill End, midsummer sunset is about 9:25pm, and by late September it’s nearer 7:05pm, which means evening fish and chips is often served in daylight in June and July. For autumn and winter weddings, when it is dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting by the van.
- We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
- You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
- We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
- We set up during the reception and start frying at the agreed time.
- We pack up quietly once everyone has eaten.
Before we arrive
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Share the timings for the day
