What a fish and chip van costs

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Your choice of menu
  • How easy the site is to reach
  • The day of the week
  • How long we serve

Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

What to tell us

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • Your date and serving time
  • The venue or postcode
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • The spot you have in mind for the van

Each quote is put together for your staff event. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability straight away.

Choosing a fish and chip van

How it works

When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Once we are hot, we cook to order, timed around your staff event. For a staff lunch in Benson, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

Food your guests will love

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Curry sauce

Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

Office caterers bring cold buffets. A van serves hot food to order. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Why Benson hosts choose us

  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Classic food your staff already know
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Common questions in Benson

How far is Benson from London?

Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London.

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Can you feed staff across different shifts?

Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We’ll talk it through when we quote.

Do you need power or water?

Let us know about power and water at the site when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Can the van park on grass?

It depends on the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.

Can you cater for allergies?

We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.

Where will the van go on our site?

Often, with a level spot and the site’s agreement. We’ll agree the exact spot with you or facilities.

Before you choose a spot

If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you. What matters most:

  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
