How to compare vans

What a fish and chip van costs

Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:

  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers
  • Service time
  • The day of the week

A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

What we need to know

  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • Where the van would park

Should I sort the food myself?

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the Christmas party.

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 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
