Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
- The number of meals
- Parking and the way in
Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
What to tell us
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Your date and serving time
- A picture of the space and the way in
- The spot you have in mind for the van
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, use our quote form.
Takeaway run or book a van?
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.
Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Working with your venue

Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
Planning the van’s spot
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirmation that the van can park there
As a London location, Tufnell Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.

- We check access and send a quote, with anything your site needs from us.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.
Preparing for the day
