Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How long we serve
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Any minimum charge
- Parking and the way in
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Where you’d like the van to go
- A picture of where the van would go
- Your date and serving time
- The address or venue name
Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your Christmas party, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Ensure the van and queue are well lit
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
- Let us know about coeliac disease
For a work party, food early in the evening typically works best.
Festive lights by the van look great.
FAQs for Woodside
Is Woodside too small for a chip van?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the nearest station to Woodside?
The closest is Ascot station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
How early do Christmas dates go?
Very early. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.
