DIY versus a fish and chip van
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your guests instead.
Why choose funeral and wake catering in Green End?
It works for everyone.
A fish and chip van suits almost any gathering. In Green End, people book us for occasions like:
- Memorial gatherings
- Wakes at home
- Family gatherings after a burial or cremation
- Gatherings after scattering ashes
If there isn’t room at home, a hall or club near Green End may suit, with the van in the car park.
Questions to ask before you book
- The cancellation terms
- Whether there is a minimum
- If the price includes VAT
- How much space the van takes up

A chip van compared with other options
A formal meal doesn’t always suit. Fish and chips lets people mingle. The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
