Take a look at how we price or what a fish and chip van costs.
What comes out of the fryer
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal, especially in winter.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger crew and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
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 crew instead.
Common questions in North End
Could you trade in Braeburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Is parking a problem for the van in North End?
London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll work around it.
What do we need to supply?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we’ll confirm the rest.
What can crew choose from?
Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your crew, and space for a queue. Mention any narrow gates or soft ground.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Can you park on the road outside?
That depends on local parking rules. Off-road parking is normally simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How fast is service?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
