15 questions to ask before booking

How the day works

Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. It’s worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Midsummer parties in Four Ashes stay bright until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:05pm. Plan lights for the drive and the queue if you are eating late.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. Show us where the van would go, and we’ll confirm it works.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park

What do you need at the house?

What a fish and chip van costs

Here’s what makes the biggest difference to the price:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How long we serve
  • Travel, tolls and road charges
  • The date and time of year

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We will send you a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • The venue or postcode
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Any dietary needs and allergies
  • Expected numbers

Each quote is put together for your party. Give us your date first, and we’ll check availability right away.

Is a fish and chip van right for your party?

Buffets are simple but rarely memorable. The van becomes part of the party. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. We quote for each booking individually.

Why book with us

  • No kitchen needed
  • Everything cooked to order at your event
  • The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
  • Cod, haddock, sausages and pies

Read our prices page and the cost guide.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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 typically simpler.

A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
