What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Access and parking
- How many people are eating
- The length of service
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Details that help

- Dietary needs, with numbers

Questions from Lewknor
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Do you come out to small places like Lewknor?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How much does a fish and chip van visit cost in Lewknor?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.
Do you offer repeat visits?
Yes, ask us about regular dates.
Do you do anything other than fish?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will be honest about what’s possible.
Where should the van go?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
What do you bring?
All the cooking happens in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
