Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is usually simpler.

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. With a van, it is fried on the spot.

Diets, allergies and planning

Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Here’s how:

  • Make sure the van can park legally
  • Let us know if anyone has coeliac disease
  • Plan something for guests whose needs we cannot meet
  • Send allergies to us in writing

Plan where the queue stands if the van is on the drive.

Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.

What a fish and chip van costs

There are no hidden charges: the price is based on:

  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Access and parking
  • Service time

The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

What we need to know

These details help us quote quickly:

  • The address or venue name
  • Your date and serving time
  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Roughly how many people, including children

Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will come back with a clear quote.

What happens on the day

Setting up takes a little while, because the oil has to come up to temperature, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. A summer party in Horsleys Green stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Send us the date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check where the van can park and send a price.
  3. On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
  4. We fry fresh and serve from the hatch as your guests come up.
  5. We pack up afterwards and leave the drive tidy.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Give us a contact for the day
  • Make sure the van can get in
