Prices and what affects them
Fish and chip van pricing is simple once we know the basics:
- The menu and how many choices
- The minimum booking
- The date and time of year
- The number of meals
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- Where you’d like the van to go
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Burger vans are common at events. A chip van gives visitors something different. The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.
Why book our van in Wormstone
- Fried fresh, not kept warm
- No surprises in your quote
- We cover Wormstone and the whole of Buckinghamshire
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
See how we price or the cost guide.
How it works
We do not cook ahead. Each portion is battered and fried as it is ordered, which is why it tastes like it does at the seaside. December events in Wormstone lose the light at about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 8:55pm by late May.
- Organisers send us the event, the dates and the pitch details.
- You get our pitch needs and a quick answer on availability.
- We arrive at the agreed time and set up on the pitch.
- We cook fresh and serve through the day.
- We pack down at the end and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Give us your final numbers and allergies
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
