About the food
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.

Walton questions
Is Walton too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
We are gathering after a service at Holy Trinity: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
How fast is service?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
Do you fry it on site?
It is. We cook inside the van, so food is cooked there and then, rather than made in advance.
Do you serve wakes at home?
Yes, with a suitable spot for the van.
When do you arrive?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
How do we estimate numbers?
It’s hard to know, so a rough number is fine. Funeral directors can advise from experience.
How much is fish and chip van hire?
We quote for each booking, based on your numbers and timings. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
Space, access and the venue
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A short walk from the party
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
From the hatch
- Mushy peas
- Pie and chips
- Haddock and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Gravy
- Cod and chips
What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
- The date and time of year
- How far we travel
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- A photo of the parking spot
- The address or venue name
- Roughly how many people, including children
We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, use our quote form.
