What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Is it a full meal?
Fish and chips is a meal in itself. Many hosts add their own desserts or cake.

What else we do in Stoke Hammond
Why choose a fish and chip van in Stoke Hammond?
Next to a hog roast, a chip van offers fish, sausages and pies rather than one dish, which helps if some guests don’t eat pork. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A route in without tight gates or low branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Count children separately
- Keep the menu short to keep the queue moving
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Put bins and napkins by the van
Fish and chips is at its best fresh from the fryer, so we cook as people come up to the hatch.
Plan cover near the hatch if rain is possible.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The date and time of year
- Any minimum charge
- Cod, haddock or both
- Parking and the way in
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The address or venue name
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Your date and serving time
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Send us the date, the address or MK17 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.
How it works
Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Evenings in Stoke Hammond stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the queue and the path to the van need good lighting.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
- Share the timings for the day
