Prices and what affects them

There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:

  • The date and time of year
  • How many people are eating
  • The length of service
  • Whether a minimum applies

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

Details that help

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • Your date and serving time
  • Where you’d like the van to go
  • A picture of the parking spot

To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Tell us about your event in College Park, and we will check the date and send a price.

Fish and chip van for events for your event in College Park

We bring the van and everything we need to cook, so we need little help from busy volunteers. For village fêtes and festivals, we can cook sausage and chips, curry sauce and mushy peas and more.

Events in College Park range from street parties and school fairs to markets and festivals. Public spaces normally need council permission, and the van needs a pitch it can reach. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

How to compare vans

Your questions about a fish and chip van for your event in College Park

Do you trade at school fairs around College Park?

Yes, if the school is happy for the van on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.

Is parking a problem for the van in College Park?

It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will work around it.

What food do you serve?

Fish and chips, of course, plus sausage or pie and chips. Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy go on the side.

Can the van park on the street?

It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

Can the van come to our fair?

Yes, where the date suits. Get in touch with the details.

What do you need on the pitch?

Tell us the pitch size and ground, and we will check it works.

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

About the food

Sausage and chips

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.

Working with your venue

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.

Having the party at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will tell you honestly whether it works.

Step by step

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. Summer fêtes in College Park have long light evenings, with sunset about 9:20pm at midsummer, while a late-September show is dark by about 7:05pm.

  1. Tell us what you are planning and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. We leave the spot as we found it.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

How to get a price

It is easy to get a price: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll come back with a clear quote.
