Planning help
Looking after everyone
We take allergies seriously. Help us by following these steps:
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Count children separately
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- A picture of the parking spot helps
Let the neighbours know the van is coming, or invite them.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and nobody has to miss the party.
The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion, so we bring it along.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
How we price a fish and chip van for your party
The price comes down to a few factors:
- Whether a minimum applies
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- Your choice of menu
- Parking and the way in
If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. A short menu is frequently the best value.
Details that help
These details help us quote quickly:
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Where the event is
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies and diets you know about
Each quote is put together for your party. Give us your date first, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
