How we price a fish and chip van for your team

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • The date and time of year
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers
  • Access and parking

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Getting an accurate quote

When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:

  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Where the van would park
  • Dietary needs, with numbers

Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we are available that day.

What comes out of the fryer

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there’s pie and chips.

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Planning a team lunch in Brighstone

Brighstone is about 6 miles south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. We cover Brighstone as standard, so all we need is your date, a parking spot and a time to serve. We take the van to all 125 towns and villages in the Isle of Wight. We serve events right across the region, from Brighstone to Southampton (about 19 miles away).

Historic houses near Brighstone include Mottistone Manor (1.4 miles north-west) and Westcourt Manor (1.6 miles east). For a client event at a historic house, ask early about rules for catering vans.

This part of the Isle of Wight takes in PO30, and we can serve your staff event anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Main Road, Meadows Close and Wilberforce Road, and the van can serve a staff event on any of them with a suitable parking spot. You will find Brighstone on the B3399, which makes the journey straightforward. Neighbouring places where we serve staff events include Moortown (1 mile north), Thorncross (1 mile south-east), Shorwell (2 miles east), Little Atherfield (3 miles south-east) and Atherfield Green (3 miles south-east). We also serve nearby towns such as Newport (6 miles north-east), Ryde (12 miles north-east), Cowes (9 miles north-east), Sandown (10 miles east), Shanklin (10 miles east) and Ventnor (9 miles east). If your staff event is somewhere remote, let us know early and we will plan the trip.

  • Lighting nearby for evening events

For somewhere as remote as Brighstone, early notice helps us plan the trip.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How the day works

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. After-work summer events in Brighstone have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, we need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know the serving time
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Make sure the van can get in

Getting a price

Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: send us your details through our quote form.

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your team in Brighstone

Is Brighstone too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

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

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.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.

What do we need to supply?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will confirm the rest.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Let us know and we will tell you what we can do before booking.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.

Can you invoice the company?

We will talk you through booking and payment for businesses.

For event organisers in Brighstone

If you are booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Allergies and dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Share the shift pattern
  • Send round an allergy question

We arrive before your break to park and heat the fryers, so service starts on time.

A simple pre-order helps us plan.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
