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. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service

A fish and chip van or other catering?
A barbecue needs someone to cook. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and access to the site. We quote for each booking individually.

What a fish and chip van costs
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- How long we serve
- Access and parking
- The number of meals
- Any minimum charge
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. We set everything out in your quote.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A picture of where the van would go
We quote for each event separately, based on your numbers, timings and travel. To ask for one, fill in our quote form.
The process
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Your staff can wander over to the hatch once service starts. Lunchtime bookings in Sevenscore are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:50pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:15pm.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Before we arrive
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible. To get it right:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities
- Send round an allergy question
- Check the site’s requirements for caterers
- A pre-order helps with numbers and allergies
After the last group, we pack up and leave the car park tidy.
A gazebo near the hatch helps on wet days.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
