FAQs for Saunderton Lee
How far is Saunderton Lee from London?
About 34 miles from central London.
Can the van go to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
What food do you serve?
The classics: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
Do you come to Saunderton Lee?
Yes, we do. Saunderton Lee is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.
What does it cost to hire the van?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we’ll reply with a price.

Organising for someone else?

The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Check your venue’s rules on outside caterers early
- Flag coeliac guests early
- Put bins near the van
Remember the band, photographer and venue staff when you give us numbers.
Let the DJ or band announce when the food is ready.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- The number of meals
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Any minimum charge
- Cod, haddock or both
Larger groups usually cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where you’d like the van to go
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.
How the day works
Service is quick: food goes from the fryer to the hatch. Afterwards we pack up. Winter weddings in Saunderton Lee are dark by about 3:55pm, so the route from the reception to the van needs lighting, while a June wedding has light until about 9:25pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
How to prepare
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
