The menu, dish by dish
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
A chip van compared with other options
Next to a delivery order, a van serves hot food on site, so it isn’t lukewarm by the time it is plated. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why us?
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Quick service from the hatch
How we price a fish and chip van visit
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Any minimum charge
- The number of meals
- How easy the site is to reach
- How long we serve
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your care home visit is.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- A picture of the parking spot
- Where the event is
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Allergies and diets you know about
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, use our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
