Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To look after them:
- A short menu helps everyone
- Mention any vegetarian or vegan guests
- Have a back-up for anyone who can’t eat from the van
- Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
The fryers take a little while to heat, so we get there in good time. If timings shift, we adapt.
A gazebo by the van keeps the queue dry.

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 cooks in front of your guests instead.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
How we price a fish and chip van
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Service time
- How easy the site is to reach
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The date and time of year
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We’ll send you a quote.
