The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Sunset in Peasmarsh is around 8:45pm in late May and 7:00pm in late September; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers for residents, staff and visitors, and the best time to serve.
- We check the parking spot and send a price.
- We agree portion sizes and any diets with your kitchen or care team.
- We serve hot from the hatch at the time the home chooses.
- We pack up quietly and leave the space tidy.
How to prepare
- Clear the route for the van
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or TN31 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. Just send us your details through our quote form.

What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Parking and the way in
- How many people are eating
- The length of service
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Larger groups generally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about

DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
