How we price a fish and chip van for the crew
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- How many people are eating
- The date and time of year
- Whether a minimum applies
- Access and parking
Larger groups generally cost less per head, since the van and set-up are much the same for any size. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
What to tell us
These details help us quote quickly:
- A picture of the parking spot
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Where you’d like the van to go
- The venue or postcode
Send us the date, the address or RH20 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you will get a clear price. Just use our quote form.
Should I sort the food myself?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
