Should I sort the food myself?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party

Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Parking and the way in
  • How far we travel
  • How many people are eating

The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

What we need to know

The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Try to include:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • The venue or postcode
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Your date and serving time

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.
