Prices and what affects them

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Access and parking
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of meals

Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.

What we need to know

You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:

  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

It’s easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will come back with a clear quote.

What happens on the day

The first sign we have arrived is typically the smell. After that, it’s a steady flow to the hatch. After-work summer events in Halnaker have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need lighting.

  1. Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we will confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your staff.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

How to get a price

Planning help

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.

  • Send allergies to us in writing
  • Consider a pre-order list
  • Tell us about coeliac staff specifically

Somewhere to sit outside helps.

A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It’s worth asking early.

  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
