Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • Parking and the way in
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • How far we travel
  • Your choice of menu

Most vans have a minimum charge, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your party.

Details that help

You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but these help:

  • The spot you have in mind for the van
  • Roughly how many people, including children
  • Where the event is
  • Anything awkward about the way in

Still finalising the details? No problem: tell us the basics about your party, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: fill in our quote form.

FAQs for Lower Cadsden

Which station is closest to Lower Cadsden?

Monks Risborough station, about 0.9 miles west of the centre.

Do you come out to small places like Lower Cadsden?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Do you need power or water from us?

Tell us what’s available at the address when you enquire, and we will say what we need.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Children typically love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

What if we only have street parking?

That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.

When should we book for a summer party?

As early as you can for summer weekends. Contact us with your date.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

How long will the queue be?

Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.

Looking after everyone

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Put allergy details in writing
  • Count children separately
  • Make sure the van can park legally
  • Ask about dietary needs on the invitation

Let the neighbours know the van is coming.

A gazebo by the hatch keeps the queue dry.

How it works

The smell of the fryers does the inviting. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, with chips cooked in batches as the queue moves. Sunset in Lower Cadsden drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so think about lighting by the van.

  1. Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
  4. The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for your guests.
  5. Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.

Preparing for the day

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
  • Name one person we can call on the day

How to get a price
