Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- The number of meals
- Parking and the way in
- The menu and how many choices
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.
What we need to know
To speed things up, tell us:
- Your date and serving time
- Roughly how many people, including children
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Where the event is
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
A chip van compared with other options
A Christmas party at a venue costs more per head. A van can be better value. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.
Why Middle Park hosts choose us
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Everything cooked to order at your event
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Sunset in Middle Park in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Getting ready for the day
- Get permission for the van from the venue
- Make sure the van can get in
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
