What a fish and chip van costs
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long we serve
- Parking and the way in
- Cod, haddock or both
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Where you’d like the van to go
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: where the van would park, how to get in, numbers and timings. Photos of the spot and the way in help. To send your details, fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Put allergy details in writing
- Send us a photo of the drive
- Ensure the van can park legally
- Let your neighbours know
With children, food about an hour in works well, before the cake.
Seats or a few tables help people eat comfortably.
Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
The process
Changes on the day are fine: we can start a little later or slow the pace to suit your party. In Peartree Green, a June party has light until about 9:25pm, while a late-September one is dark by about 7:10pm. Fairy lights by the van help once it gets dark.
- It starts with your date, address and numbers.
- We check access for the van and send a quote.
- On the day we arrive, park up and heat the fryers.
- We serve hot from the hatch while the party carries on.
- Afterwards, we clear up and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Give us a contact for the day
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue

Peartree Green: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Peartree Green United Reform Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Peartree Green?
Woolston station, in Peartree Green itself.
Do we need to provide anything?
Mostly just a good parking spot. Tell us what’s available and we will take it from there.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Do you clear up afterwards?
We take the van and everything with it, and leave the spot tidy. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
Planners, venues and businesses
Parks, greens and streets typically need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
