What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- How easy the site is to reach
- How many people are eating
- Any minimum charge
- Cod, haddock or both
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- The date and time of the event
- A picture of where the van would go
- Where the van would park
- Roughly how many people, including children
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.
About our corporate fish and chip catering in Ramsnest Common
A Fish Friday treat, an end-of-project lunch or a summer team day, a chip van makes it feel like an occasion. We’re often asked to cater summer team days and open days and customer events, serving pie and chips, sausage and chips and haddock and chips.
At country workplaces around Ramsnest Common, a chip van brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. The fryers are in the van, so the cooking happens right there at your staff event, so the batter is still crisp when it is handed over.

Is Ramsnest Common too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How does payment work for businesses?
Tell us what your finance team needs and we will explain.

Send us your site’s list, and we will confirm what we can provide.
What happens if it rains?

Can you come onto our site?
Your facilities team decides, but a car park or yard is typically ideal.
Do we need to provide equipment?

Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?

Read our prices page or the cost guide.
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
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 generally the easier option.
Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
