How we price a fish and chip van for your team

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

What we need to know

Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • The address or venue name
  • Where the van would park
  • Anything awkward about the way in

Thinking about a fish and chip van for your team for your staff event in Stonor? Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll reply with a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

Occasions we serve in Stonor

People remember it, which is the point of a thank-you.

The van suits big events and small ones. Typical bookings include:

  • Retirement send-offs
  • Open days and customer events
  • Thank-you lunches for the team
  • Workplace fundraising days

Nearby historic houses include Stonor Park (0.5 miles south-east) and Greenlands (3.6 miles south-east). Estates and historic houses can make memorable settings for client events, but they generally set strict rules for vehicles.

For event organisers in Stonor

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.

Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Diets, allergies and planning

Most events have a few staff with dietary needs. To look after them:

  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Ask staff to pre-order
  • Flag any coeliac staff
  • Send allergies to us in writing

Plan the queue away from vehicle routes.

Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.

FAQs for Stonor

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Is Stonor too small for a chip van?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Who clears up?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for staff are worth planning.

Can you feed staff across different shifts?

Give us the break times and we will serve in waves.

How soon do we need to book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Can you cook in the rain?

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. Staff will appreciate cover near the hatch.

Does the batter contain gluten?

Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac staff in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

What do we need to supply?

Let us know about power and water at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.

How the day works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. In Stonor, a summer staff event stays light until about 9:25pm; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.

  1. We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. On the day we set up and fry to order through the agreed service time.
  5. We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue
  • Let us know the serving time

How to get a price
