What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, depending on:
- How long we serve
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Any minimum charge
- Access and parking
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the parking spot
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The venue or postcode
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Give us the details of your Christmas party, and we will come back with availability and a quote.
Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Confirm allergies by email
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Let us know about coeliac disease
- Check the van can park on site
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is often wise.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.

A chip van compared with other options

How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, park the van and get the fryers going. Your guests can wander over to the hatch once service starts. At about 4:00pm in late December, it gets dark in Faringdon, so put the van where there’s good light.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Let us know who to talk to on the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
