The process
Expect a friendly, organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, park on the agreed spot, and cook and serve without fuss. A lunch-break van visit in Lymore is always in daylight, but evening events need lights from about 4:05pm in December or 7:10pm in late September.

- We come back with availability and a clear price.

Questions from Lymore
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
What’s the nearest station to Lymore?
The closest is Lymington Town station, roughly 2.7 miles away.
When do you arrive?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
What does it cost to hire the van?
It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Tell us about your staff event and we’ll send a quote.
Can you feed staff across different shifts?
Yes, with the shift pattern in advance. We’ll agree a service plan before the day.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
A short menu and staggered groups keep things moving. We will talk it through when we quote.
Can we pay by invoice?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we’ll explain.
Should I sort the food myself?
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.

How we price a fish and chip van for your team
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- Any minimum charge
- The day of the week
- Travel, tolls and road charges
Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.
