What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. Sunset in Easton drops to about 7:10pm by late September and 4:00pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
How to prepare
- Let us know the serving time
- Ensure the van can get in
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
Getting a price
Send us the date, the address or RG20 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we will reply with a quote. To get started, use our quote form.

Party fish and chip van in Easton, cooked to order
Guests who do not know each other end up chatting in the queue, which is what a party is all about. Whether it’s big birthdays and children’s parties, we will put together a menu of curry sauce, haddock and chips and gravy and more.
In a small place like Easton, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

What a fish and chip van costs
There are no hidden charges: the quote reflects:
- The minimum booking
- Numbers
- The day of the week
- Your choice of menu
The cost per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Tell us your numbers for an accurate price.
What to tell us
Good planning starts with a few facts. Try to include:
- Where the event is
- Any dietary needs and allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Every quote is worked out for your event. Give us your date first, and we’ll confirm whether we’re available that day.
Planners, venues and businesses
Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep you updated on arrival and serving times.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
What comes out of the fryer
Pie and chips
For a heartier option, there is pie and chips, perfect with gravy.
Haddock and chips
Some people swear by haddock: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
