What a fish and chip van costs

Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:

  • Numbers
  • The menu and how many choices
  • The minimum booking
  • How far we travel

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Where the event is
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Roughly how many people, including children

Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will quote on that. To start, use our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:

  • A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Check the site’s requirements for caterers
  • Plan an alternative for anyone we can’t cater for

Put bins near the hatch.

A few tables or benches outside make it a proper break.

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

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

Cod and chips

For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Planning the van’s spot

We will be honest if a spot will not work. What matters most:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • Access wide and high enough for the van

Canons Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, everyone gets a break. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.

Why book our van in Canons Park

  • No kitchen needed
  • Fish and chips fried fresh on site
  • A van that becomes part of the event
  • A clear quote before you book

The process

There’s very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your staff event. The frying and serving are down to us. After-work summer events in Canons Park 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.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

How to compare vans

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

Is parking a problem for the van in Canons Park?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We will plan around it.

Can the van park in Edgwarebury Park?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.

How soon do we need to book?

The sooner the better. Peak dates go quickly, so get in touch early.

Who clears up?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.

Do you fry it on site?

It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

Is there something for children?

Yes. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.

Can the van park on grass?

Usually, if it is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

Can you cook in the rain?

We cook inside the van, so rain doesn’t stop us. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.
