How to compare vans

About the food

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the classic side with fish and chips.

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.

What a fish and chip van costs

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • The day of the week
  • How long we serve
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • Anything awkward about the way in

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.

The process

Rain does not stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. Staff will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Dagenham, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:20pm; winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time to set up.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Let us know the serving time
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Getting a price

Send us the date, the address or RM10 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time, and you’ll get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.

Planning help

Should I sort the food myself?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
