How we price a fish and chip van for your party

Your quote will be clear. What affects it most:

  • Your choice of menu
  • The minimum booking
  • Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of meals

Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. Our quotes spell it all out.

What we need to know

To speed things up, tell us:

  • The venue or postcode
  • Anything awkward about the way in
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. To get started, use our quote form.

For event organisers in Maynard's Green

For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.

Wedding planners and venue coordinators are welcome to contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.

Food your guests will love

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Haddock and chips

Some people swear by haddock: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.

Events we cater in Maynard's Green

It works at home: a drive or a firm spot near the garden will do.

Whatever brings people together, fish and chips from the hatch goes down well. We regularly serve:

  • Milestone birthdays
  • Street parties and neighbourhood events
  • Anniversary celebrations
  • Reunions and family get-togethers

Nearby historic houses include Horselunges Manor (4.2 miles south). For most parties, a home or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict vehicle rules.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the price includes, item by item
  • The service time, and the cost of running over
  • How allergens are handled
  • When payment is due

Our booking checklist

Questions from Maynard's Green

Do you come out to small places like Maynard's Green?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you come to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Do you do street parties?

Often, yes. Start the road closure application early.

What about guests who don’t eat fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Can you park at our house?

Often, yes, with a level drive and a clear way in. Send a picture of the drive and the way in.

How far ahead should we book a party?

Weekends from May to September are busiest, so ask early.

When do you arrive?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.

Do you bring everything you need?

All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.

Should I sort the food myself?

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

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.

Before you choose a spot

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We look for:

  • A clear area by the serving hatch
  • A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
  • The site’s agreement to a catering van

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What happens on the day

We work to your timings. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so the food is still fresh when it is served. A summer party in Maynard's Green stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Let us know who to talk to on the day
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Getting a price

We quote for each event separately, so the price fits what you actually need. To ask for one, send us your details through our quote form.
