How to compare vans

About the food

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people, and they’re on the menu.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is generally simpler.

How it works

A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, park up and set up, the fryers heat up, and food goes out hot at the agreed time. Evening events in Clayhill have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer; after dark, we need a lit pitch.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Name one person we can call on the day

Ask for a quote

A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. To send your details, send us your details through our quote form.

Clayhill: your questions answered

Is Clayhill close to London?

About 31 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Is Clayhill too small for a chip van?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you cater for helpers?

Yes, alongside public trading or on its own.

Do you have allergen information?

Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Send us any allergies in writing.

Do we need to provide equipment?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Do you have a kids’ option?

Yes. Children normally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.

Do you trade at schools?

We do. We will need a safe route onto the site away from children.

Can you trade at our fête or festival?

Tell us the date and pitch details and we will check.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

Cakes and sandwiches are popular, but hot food is a draw when it is cool. 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.
