How we price a fish and chip van for your event
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Access and parking
- How many people are eating
- Service time
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
There’s no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- Allergies and diets you know about
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance, and how it gets in.
- On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Before we arrive
- Give us a contact for the day
- Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch

DIY versus a fish and chip van
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the event.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Settle the pitch terms early
- Plan crew and volunteer food times
- Give us an idea of numbers
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
Crew food is served at the agreed time.
A spot near the entrance or main ring works well.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
