Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
Your choice of menu

Got a budget? Let us know, and we will suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

What we need to know

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

Expected numbers
The address or venue name
Any dietary needs and allergies

Not sure of numbers yet? That is fine: tell us the basics about your shoot, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

The menu, dish by dish

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Sausage and chips

Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.

Choosing a fish and chip van

What happens on the day

The first sign we have arrived is usually the smell. From then on, people come up as they’re ready. Daylight is short on winter shoots near Lambs Green: sunset is about 3:55pm, so lunch at base is often in daylight but a wrap meal is not.

You share your date, numbers and address.
We check the route in and send a price.
We arrive in good time to set up.
Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Preparing for the day

Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain

Why choose a fish and chip van in Lambs Green?

Many locations are miles from shops. The van solves that. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
