What a fish and chip van costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu and how many choices
- Whether a minimum applies
- How far we travel
- How many people are eating
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your Christmas party.

- Anything awkward about the way in
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies and diets you know about
