Prices and what affects them
There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:
- Distance and any road charges
- Access and parking

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Allergies and diets you know about
- A photo of the space and the way in
- Your date and serving time
- Rough numbers for adults and children
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. A picture of the spot helps too. When you are ready, use our quote form.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
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.
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We are happy to send a quote so you can compare.
Diets, allergies and planning
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Put bins and napkins by the van
- Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell us about vegetarian and vegan guests early
Bins and napkins near the hatch make life easier.
Somewhere to sit or lean makes fish and chips easier to eat.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. Late September evenings in Sheet lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the van makes a difference.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
