A closer look at the menu
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Curry sauce
Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.
Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?
For something other than turkey, a fish and chip van is a great choice. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Why book with us
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No kitchen needed
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- A clear quote before you book
Read our pricing and the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Make sure the van and queue are well lit
- Keep the queue dry
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
We park somewhere lit and get the fryers hot before the party starts.
Some teams collect for a local charity on the day.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
