Whether it’s a Friday treat or an end-of-quarter thank you, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. Popular choices include cod and chips, sausage and chips and mushy peas, and we’re often booked for workplace fundraising days and end-of-project celebrations.

Planning the van’s spot
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Access wide and high enough for the van
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A short walk from the party
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
From the hatch
- Sausage and chips
- Cod and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Pie and chips
- Staff lunches
- Mushy peas
For event organisers in Amport
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a facilities manager or an organiser, we’re happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Numbers
- Whether a minimum applies
- The date and time of year
- The length of service
Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

How quickly can you serve everyone?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
The process
We get there well before service, park the van and get the fryers going. Your staff can wander over to the hatch as soon as we open. In Amport, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Ensure the van can get in
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. There is 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. Your quote spells it all out.
Why us?
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking
