We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

- The length of service
- Parking and the way in
- The minimum booking
Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.
Getting an accurate quote
To speed things up, tell us:
- A picture of the parking spot
- Where you’d like the van to go
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Where the event is
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Most events have a few visitors with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Share pitch details
- Display allergens for each stall
- Agree how we’ll be paid: pitch fee, share of takings or minimum
- Plan something for visitors we can’t cater for
When the event closes, we pack up.
Let visitors know there is a chip van.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
What happens on the day
It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we have agreed, and cook and serve without fuss. For an evening event in Winton, sunset is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:15pm in late June; after dark, we need a lit pitch.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your visitors.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Choose a level, firm spot for the van
How to get a price

The menu, dish by dish
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it goes perfectly with a pie.
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger visitors and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.

- What’s available on the pitch
