How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. It gets dark in Berrick Salome by about 3:55pm at Christmas; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Is Berrick Salome close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?

Take a look at how we price and our guide to van hire costs.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s 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’s battered and fried to order.
Planning for dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
Keep the walk from the door to the van short, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.
Prices and what affects them
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access and parking
- How far we travel
- How long we serve
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where the event is
- A picture of where the van would go
The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Tell us about your Christmas party in Berrick Salome, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
