  • Any minimum charge
  • Numbers
  • The length of service

Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

  • The venue or postcode
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Every booking is quoted individually, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.

A closer look at the menu

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Working with your venue

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
