What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu and how many choices
- The date and time of year
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the van would park
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
A closer look at the menu
Mushy peas
No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Step by step
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your residents can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. In Felpham, the garden season runs from late May, with light until about 8:50pm, to late September, around 7:05pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- 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
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Share the timings for the day

FAQs for Felpham
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Can the van park in The Brooks Local Nature Reserve?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you do smaller portions for residents?
We’ll plan portions with the home.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we will confirm what we need.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
Can you come every month?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Which areas do you serve?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
