What comes out of the fryer
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
What affects the price in Crockerhill
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Your choice of menu
- How long we serve
- The number of meals
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
What we need to know
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but it helps to know:
- Where the van would park
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The address or venue name
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Confirm allergies by email
- Collect allergies in advance
- Consider a pre-order list
For shift teams, we serve in waves, as agreed in advance.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.

We get there in good time to set up. We’ll agree arrival and serving times with you.

Is grass a problem?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a photo if you can.
