What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- A picture of where the van would go
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The address or venue name
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Planning for dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Ask about smaller portions
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
- Plan it with your catering manager
- Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
We set up before the mealtime.
Music from the 1950s and 60s sets the mood.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Lighting for later visits
- A spot residents can enjoy, inside or out
- A level, firm spot such as the car park or drive
Not sure about the spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

About the food
