How we price a fish and chip van visit
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- How many people are eating
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
- Cod, haddock or both
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
What to tell us
You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
- The spot you have in mind for the van
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.

Should I sort the food myself?

About the food
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it’s on the menu.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you contact us. In general, we need:
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
- Access the van can manage
- A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
