Diets, allergies and planning
Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

About the food
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Cooked fresh at the hatch, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.

What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The date and time of year
- The number of meals
- Your choice of menu
- How far we travel
The cost per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know about your wake, the better we can plan. Try to include:
- The address or venue name
- Expected numbers
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A photo of the parking spot
To get a price, send us your details through our quote form. Give us the details of your wake, and we will check the date and send a price.
Takeaway run or book a 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 normally the easier option.
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.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we hold off cooking until you are ready, so nothing is cooked before it’s needed. In summer, a wake in Nash has light until about 9:20pm, while winter afternoons darken by about 3:55pm.
- Tell us what you’re planning and when you’d like to eat.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
