Prices and what affects them

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • The date and time of year
  • How far we travel
  • How long we serve
  • The minimum booking

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

What to tell us

You do not need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Where you’d like the van to go

Every booking is quoted individually, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, use our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Cod and chips

Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.

DIY versus a fish and chip 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.

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.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

What you get with us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • No kitchen needed
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • A van that becomes part of the event
