What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Your choice of menu
- The date and time of year
- How long we serve
- Numbers
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Where the van would park
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of where the van would go
Each quote is put together for your care home visit. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
Step by step
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In summer, Roxeth has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
- We start with a few details about your care home visit.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for residents.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your residents, and space for a queue. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Where will the van park?
In the car park or on the drive, away from ambulance routes.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Planning the van’s spot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you contact us. Generally, we look for:
- Away from emergency access
- Firm, level ground close to the home
- Away from bedroom windows
As a London location, Roxeth is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A seaside afternoon with a chip van feels special, without leaving the home. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
