Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Larger groups normally cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.

Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can the van come to our open day?
Yes, it is a great draw. Tell us the expected numbers and hours.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Can the van park on the street?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.

That’s up to your site, but a car park or yard is usually ideal.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: the batter contains wheat. Tell us about any coeliac staff and we will explain the options before you book.
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.
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The day of the week
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
- Service time
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is normally the best value.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
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.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:
- Ask facilities about access
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Flag any coeliac staff
We can serve each shift in turn.
Make it a regular thing: monthly or quarterly.
- 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
