Takeaway run or book a van?
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.

Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we are happy to deal with you and the venue directly. It saves passing messages back and forth.
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Prices and what affects them
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and any road charges
- The length of service
- Cod, haddock or both
- How many people are eating
Dates make a difference: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. It is worth asking early.
Getting an accurate quote

Luxted questions
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is parking a problem for the van in Luxted?
It can be, so tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council suspension. We will plan around it.
How long are you on site?
That depends on your numbers and timings. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
Do you cover Luxted?
We do. Luxted is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a photo if you can.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Tell us how many are coming.
Does the batter contain gluten?
No, not as standard: batter is normally made with wheat flour. Tell us about any coeliac guests and we’ll explain the options.

A fish and chip van or other catering?
Ordering in for a crowd means long waits. A van fries on the spot. The cost per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we’ll quote.

Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Have a back-up for special diets
- Give us separate numbers for children
- Send allergies to us in writing
- Tell the neighbours the van is coming
For a children’s party, serve food about an hour in, before the cake.
Bunting and festoon lights by the van make it part of the party.
The process
We get there well before service, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Guests typically gather round the hatch once service starts. Sunset in Luxted drops to about 7:05pm by late September and 3:55pm by December, so a lit spot for the van helps.
- We start with a few details about your party.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
Ask for a quote
