DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it goes out hot and crisp.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Compared with a sandwich platter, a chip van feels like a proper treat. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we will suggest a menu and timing to match. A short menu is often the best value.
