About the food
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger crew and fish-dodgers.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most events have a few crew with dietary needs. To look after them:
- Name a contact in the production office
- Add an allergy question to crew forms
- Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
- Share the base location and route
Supporting artists and visitors can be included in numbers.
Plan bins at the unit base.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway to a location is unreliable. A van cooks at the unit base. Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: hours, menu, travel, minimum charge and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.
Why us?
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- Rain doesn’t stop the fryers
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- Something for crew to gather round
What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, because of:
- The number of meals
- Access and parking

- Service time
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.

- Where the van would park
