What affects the price in Ditton
We will give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
- The length of service

- How easy the site is to reach

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- Your date and serving time

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
About the food
Gravy
Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan, especially with curry sauce.
Working with your venue
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will explain how it works. We are happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.

With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:

Step by step
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. In Ditton, a June party has light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check where the van can park and send a price.
- We arrive, park on the drive or agreed spot and set up.
- Guests come up to the hatch and we fry to order.
- We pack up when we’re done and leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Clear the route for the van
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
