What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- How long we serve
- The menu and how many choices
- How many people are eating
- The minimum booking
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.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we will work through them with you.
Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
- 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
