How our fish and chip van hire works in Sherington
Rain doesn’t stop a fish and chip van, because the fryers are inside. That makes it a safe bet for British events. Whether it is company team days and wakes and celebrations of life, we will put together a menu of gravy, pie and chips and mushy peas.
In a small place like Sherington, the van often parks on a farm track, a field or a drive. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives and we will plan for them, and firm, dry ground is the key. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Common questions in Sherington
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Laud?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Sherington close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you park on the road outside?
It depends on the road. Off-road parking is typically simpler; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you have allergen information?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Normally, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.
What’s on the menu?
The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

What happens on the day
Here’s how the day normally runs: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. Around midsummer it stays light in Sherington until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening events are normally served in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:50pm, so winter events need lighting by the van.
