About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Any minimum charge
- How far we travel
- Parking and the way in
- The number of meals
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What to tell us
The more we know about your Christmas party, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Anything awkward about the way in
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
Should I sort the food myself?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
The process
The van turns up at the agreed time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen. Once the oil is hot, the first portions go out right on schedule. It gets dark in Hurst Green by about 3:55pm at Christmas; park the van where there is good light.
- It starts with your date, site and numbers.
- You get an access check and a clear quote.
- We agree arrival, lighting and the serving spot with you or the venue.
- We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
- We pack up when service ends and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
