For event organisers in Russell's Green
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The menu and how many choices
- How many people are eating
- Service time
Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Expected numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, fill in our quote form.
