What a fish and chip van costs

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • How long we serve
  • Any minimum charge
  • The number of meals
  • Access and parking

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Where the event is
  • Where the van would park
  • Expected numbers
  • Anything awkward about the way in

Still finalising the details? That’s fine: tell us the basics about your staff event, and we will quote on that. To start, use our quote form.

Corporate fish and chip catering for your staff event in Marden's Hill

Rural businesses around Marden's Hill can be a long way from anywhere to buy lunch, so a chip van lunch is welcome. We cook inside the van, right where your staff are, so the batter is still crisp when it’s handed over.

Diets, allergies and planning

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Collect allergies in advance
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Ask facilities about access
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we cannot meet

A quick message to staff when the van opens helps.

Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.

Perfect for your staff event in Marden's Hill

There’s nothing to book but the van, so it is simple to arrange.

We can help if you are planning any of the following:

  • Fish Friday treats
  • Leaving dos
  • Warehouse, depot and site teams
  • Team away days

Nearby historic houses include Groombridge Place (3.8 miles north-east) and Bassetts Manor (4 miles north-west). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for vehicles.

Our booking checklist

What comes out of the fryer

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.

The process

On the day, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, timed around your staff event. For an end-of-day event in Marden's Hill, summer gives you light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep space clear for staff at the hatch
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Planning the van’s spot

A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. These are the things we check:

  • Access wide and high enough for the van
  • Lighting nearby for evening events
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

From the hatch

  • Haddock and chips
  • Cod and chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Staff lunches
  • Pie and chips
  • Sausage and chips
