How we price a fish and chip van for your party
These are the factors that matter most:
- How far we travel
- The length of service
- Access and parking
- The minimum booking
Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.
Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the van would park
- The venue or postcode
- Allergies and diets you know about
Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, fill in our quote form.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.

Common questions in Forty Green
Is Forty Green close to London?
About 38 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Buckinghamshire. Find your area.
Is there a non-fish option?
Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Tell us about other diets and we will tell you what we can offer.
Can the van park on grass?
Typically, if it’s firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Children generally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
