Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
What a fish and chip van costs
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Access and parking
- Whether a minimum applies
- Service time
- The number of meals
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
What we need to know
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the van would park
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will come back with a clear quote.
Wood's Corner questions
Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to Wood's Corner?
Stonegate station, about 5 miles north of the centre.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Is the fish gluten-free?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Tell us about coeliac staff when you enquire, and we’ll be straight with you about what’s possible.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do you have allergen information?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Office caterers bring cold buffets. A chip van serves hot food fresh from the fryer. A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Why Wood's Corner hosts choose us
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Organising for someone else?
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
