Fresh fish and chips in Bray

What a fish and chip van costs

We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • The minimum booking
  • The day of the week

Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

What we need to know

When you contact us, it helps to tell us:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Expected numbers
  • Anything awkward about the way in

We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

Party fish and chip van for your party in Bray

Guests who do not know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. We’re often asked to cater engagement parties and big birthdays, serving gravy, sausage and chips and mushy peas.

In a small place like Bray, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet.

The process

We take care of the food from arrival to the last chip, so you can get on with your party in Bray. Midsummer parties in Bray stay bright until about 9:25pm, but by late September sunset is about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.

  1. We start with a few details about your party.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Why us?

  • Fried fresh, not kept warm
  • Served hot, straight from the hatch
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
  • A van that becomes part of the event

Events we cater in Bray

There is no kitchen to clear up afterwards, which makes the morning after much easier.

  • Street parties
  • Naming days and christenings
  • Birthday parties
  • Engagement parties

What comes out of the fryer

Cod and chips

Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.

Mushy peas

Mushy peas are a must for plenty of fish and chip fans, and they’re on the menu.

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 a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
