How we price a fish and chip van visit
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
- The length of service
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

- The address or venue name

For event organisers in Lower End
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Food your guests will love
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
The home’s kitchen can make fish and chips, but a van makes it an event. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Why Lower End hosts choose us
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- A clear quote before you book
- We cover Lower End and the whole of Milton Keynes
- Nothing for you to cook or clear

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. 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 typically simpler.
