What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How long we serve
- How many people are eating
- The menu and how many choices
- Access and parking
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.

- The spot you have in mind for the van

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Most events have a burger van. Fish and chips adds variety. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.

A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order, so it is crisp when it reaches you.
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it’s a favourite in colder months.
