The process
You’ll know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over, about the time the first staff wander across. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. After-work summer events in Dean Court have daylight until about 9:25pm in late June and 7:10pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- First, tell us about your staff event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
- Everything goes out hot from the hatch, and we pack up afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Give us a contact for the day

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, everyone gets a break. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Why book with us
