We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll tell you what we can offer.
Do you take everything away?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Where can the van park?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your guests, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather does not stop the van, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Which fish do you use?
Both are on our menu; we’ll agree the choice when we quote.

About the food
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food, especially in winter.
Should I sort the food myself?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, 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.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Compared with a hog roast, a fish and chip van gives people a choice of fish, sausage or pie, which suits guests who don’t eat pork. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We will tell you up front.
What you get with us
- No kitchen needed
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
- A menu almost everyone likes
