A fish and chip van or other catering?
Hog roasts are a Christmas favourite, but it is pork only. A van offers fish, sausages and pies. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
What you get with us
- We cover Chiltington and the whole of East Sussex
- No kitchen needed
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- All the chip-shop extras
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Book as early as possible for December
We arrive in good time and set up in a lit spot.
A bit of festive music by the van helps.
How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Any minimum charge
- The number of meals
- Your choice of menu
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 will quote.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The venue or postcode
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability straight away.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
