A fish and chip van or other catering?
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the oil comes up to temperature, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. For an end-of-day event in Wolvercote, summer gives you light until about 9:25pm; in late May it is about 9:00pm, and in winter the yard or car park will need lighting.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
Preparing for the day
- Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Food your guests will love
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

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

Looking after everyone
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Confirm allergies by email
- Collect allergies in advance
- Share the shift pattern
Send a message round when the van opens, and stagger departments if you can.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
