How we price a fish and chip van for your Christmas party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- The day of the week
- Whether a minimum applies
- Your choice of menu
- Service time
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
Getting an accurate quote
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Your date and serving time
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is normally the easier option.
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Redbridge: your questions answered
Is parking a problem for the van in Redbridge?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will work around it.
Could you trade in Valentines Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Greater London. See all areas.
Do you cover Redbridge?
Yes, we do. Redbridge is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
How fast is service?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
Will the weather be a problem?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Plan a short, lit route from the door to the hatch.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.
Planners, venues and businesses
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll let you know if the van will fit.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a restaurant Christmas lunch, a van brings the meal to the team. 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. We set everything out in your quote.
What you get with us

A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Before you choose a spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. Generally, we look for:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
As a London location, Redbridge is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the hatch
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Gravy
- Curry sauce
- Pie and chips
- Mushy peas
Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Ask about allergies on the party invitation
- Put allergy details in writing
We park somewhere lit and get the fryers hot before the party starts.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
