Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Food your guests will love
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
What affects the price in Newpound Common
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- How long we serve
- How far we travel
- Access and parking
- The date and time of year
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
Details that help
The more we know about your staff event, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- A picture of where the van would go
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Where the event is
- Expected numbers
We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can send us your details through our quote form.

- On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your staff.
