A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Should I sort the food myself?
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
