Planning help
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to a few factors:
- How long we serve
- How easy the site is to reach
- Your choice of menu
- Travel, tolls and road charges
There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
You don’t need every detail fixed to get a quote, but these help:
- Where the van would park
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the event is
The quickest way to a quote is to use our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in Pluckley, and we’ll come back with availability and a quote.
Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
- Flag any coeliac staff
- Collect allergies in advance
A quick message to staff when the van opens helps, and stagger departments if you can.
A pre-order list speeds things up and helps with allergies.
What the van needs
No two venues are the same, so we ask about the spot and the way in when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A spot near your staff
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
From the hatch
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Staff lunches
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
Pluckley questions
Which station is closest to Pluckley?
Pluckley station, about 1.4 miles south of the centre.
Is Pluckley too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Is grass a problem?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Who clears up?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. Bins for staff are worth planning.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will include them in the plan.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.
How much does a fish and chip van for your team cost in Pluckley?
The price depends on numbers, menu, service time and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
