Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Do not forget your suppliers
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
After service, we pack up quietly and let the dancing carry on.
Have napkins handy: fish and chips is finger food after dark.

Questions from Stone Copse
Is Stone Copse too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the van park in Victoria Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.
How long does set-up take?
We get there in good time to set up. Timings are agreed in advance.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Berkshire. Find your area.
How long will the queue be?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we will plan service around it.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Hog roasts are a wedding favourite, but it’s pork only. A van gives a choice of fish, sausage or pie. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Why book with us
- Classic food your guests already know
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
- Something for guests to gather round

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It’s battered and fried to order.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
