What a fish and chip van costs
Two events with the same numbers can cost different amounts, depending on:
- The number of meals
- How long we serve
- The date and time of year
- Distance and any road charges
The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. It is worth asking early.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Expected numbers
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of the parking spot
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. Just fill in our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
How the day works
From set-up to the last portion, we look after the food, so you can get on with your party. A summer party in Broyle Side stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
