Fries cart hire for events

• Cart with fryer, delivery, set-up and collection.
• Trained staff to fry and serve.
• Potatoes, oil and salt, unlimited during the hours booked.
• Paper cones for serving.
• Sauces: ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard or barbecue.

You can also hire it without staff. We then ask for a deposit, refunded in full if the cart comes back working, undamaged and clean.

Our team sets up the station before the event starts. The chips are fried during service, so every portion is fresh and crispy. Guests get their cone, pick a sauce and carry on.

Frying in front of people catches the eye and the smell does half the work. That is why it is so good at busy trade shows and events: people find the cart on their own.

It pairs well with other savoury stations, such as our burger cart or hot dog cart.

The cart serves 30 to 50 portions an hour:

• 1 hour: about 30-50 portions.
• 2 hours: 60-100 portions.
• 3 hours: 90-150 portions.

At that pace it is easy to work out how long you need for your numbers. If it falls short, add a second cart.

The chips contain no gluten but are fried in shared oil. Sauces may contain egg (mayonnaise) and mustard. It is suitable for vegetarians and, with the right sauces, vegans. The full sheet is available.

We brand the lower or upper front of the cart to match your brand or your event theme. It is the panel facing your guests, where it currently says "French Fries".

The cone is the other big branding space: every guest carries it around the venue. Ask us about cones or napkins with your logo, depending on quantities and lead times. More ideas on our branded food carts page.

Allow at least two working weeks for cart branding.

• Trade shows and conferences, to serve lots of people quickly. See food carts for trade shows.
• Corporate events and family days. See corporate event food carts.
• Shopping centres and brand activations. See brand activation food carts.
• Festivals and sports events.
• Weddings, communions and birthdays.

• Power: a standard socket within 2 metres for the fryer.
• Space: a good-sized area for the cart and supplies, with a metre clear in front.
• Access: an easy route from the unloading area.

Set-up takes about an hour: we level the cart, connect and test the fryer, and prepare the sauces and ingredients. If anything is not feasible at your venue, let us know and we will find a solution.

To prepare your proposal we need the date, service times, event address, an on-site contact and a rough guest count. With that we work out the hours and confirm availability.

If you want the cart branded, book at least two working weeks ahead. Without branding the lead time is shorter, but most clients book one or two months in advance to secure the date, especially in trade show and Christmas party season.
