Why choose a fish and chip van in Haslingbourne?

Next to a delivery order, the van cooks on site, so it is not lukewarm by the time it is plated. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is often the best value.

Why book with us

  • Quick service from the hatch
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • Nothing for you to cook or clear

Read our pricing and what a fish and chip van costs.

How we price a fish and chip van visit

Your quote will be clear. The main things that affect it are:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The date and time of year
  • Access and parking
  • Distance and any road charges

Larger groups usually cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

What to tell us

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The address or venue name
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. You can send us your details through our quote form.

A closer look at the menu

Cod and chips

Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.
