Prices and what affects them
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How far we travel
- The length of service
- Any minimum charge
- How easy the site is to reach
When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Details that help
The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of where the van would go
- The venue or postcode
- Allergies and diets you know about
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. 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.
How it works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your Christmas party. At about 3:55pm in late December, it gets dark in Donnybrook Quarter, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Give us your final numbers and allergies

Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
