How we price a fish and chip van visit
These are the factors that matter most:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How far we travel
- Cod, haddock or both
- How long we serve
Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of the space and the way in
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Your date and serving time
- The spot you have in mind for the van
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. When you are ready, use our quote form.
Step by step
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace. For a summer visit in Titsey, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.
