What a fish and chip van costs
Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:
- Parking and the way in
- How many people are eating
- The day of the week
- How long we serve
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
For a quote, it helps to have:
- Where the van would park
- A photo of the space and the way in
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, use our quote form.

Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger staff and fish-dodgers.
