What a fish and chip van costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Cod, haddock or both
- Whether a minimum applies
- Distance and any road charges
- How many people are eating
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- A photo of the space and the way in
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: use our quote form.

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Botolphs for staff days and team lunches
Botolphs is about 3 miles north-west of Shoreham-by-Sea, in West Sussex.

Botolphs is about 44 miles from central London, well within our area. Nearby historic houses include Portslade Manor (4.6 miles south-east).

Questions to ask before booking
- How late numbers can change
- Whether travel is included
- The deposit and payment dates
- Allergen information for each item
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. Our advice:
- Send round an allergy question
- Give us break and shift times
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
Bins and napkins by the van make it easy.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
What happens on the day
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we can start a little later or slow the pace. After-work summer events in Botolphs have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Let us know the serving time
Getting a price
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Botolphs
Can you serve near the sea around Botolphs?
Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Is Botolphs close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Tell us your date and rough numbers and we will reply with a price.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How much space do you need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Can you serve each shift?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We will agree a service plan before the day.
What’s on the menu?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. The van cooks on site. Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
