How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

A level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.

How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Send us any allergies in writing.
For planners, venues and organisers
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
A cold buffet does not feel festive. Hot food from the van does. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

- Allergies and diets you know about
- Your date and serving time

- A photo of the space and the way in
Each quote is put together for your Christmas party. Start with your date, and we will check availability right away.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
- 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
