How we price a fish and chip van visit
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
- The minimum booking
- Cod, haddock or both
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where you’d like the van to go
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, use our quote form.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Taking residents out is a big undertaking. A van brings the treat to them. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why book with us
- Hot food handed straight over
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- A van that becomes part of the event
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
The menu, dish by dish
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
- Not blocking ambulance bays
- A clear way in for the van
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Burgh Hill
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
