DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your Christmas party in Upper Burgate
Is Upper Burgate too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Can you serve in the cold?
The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your Christmas party and we’ll send a quote.
Do you need power or water?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Can the van come to Upper Burgate?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Upper Burgate is within our area. For a quote, use our quote form.
What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
How far ahead should we book?
The sooner the better. Popular dates book up first, so it pays to ask early.
Where the van can park in Upper Burgate

What affects the price in Upper Burgate
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How many people are eating
- Any minimum charge
- The day of the week
- How easy the site is to reach
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. We set everything out in your quote.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
