How we price a fish and chip van for your event
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- How easy the site is to reach
- The menu and how many choices
- The number of meals
- The minimum booking
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Expected numbers

- Where you’d like the van to go
Getting a quote is simple: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We’ll send a clear quote that says what’s included.
Should I sort the food myself?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
