What affects the price in HP12

We’ll give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Your choice of menu
  • Access and parking
  • The minimum booking
  • The date and time of year

Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.

What to tell us

You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
  • The venue or postcode

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the parking spot, access, numbers and serving time. A photo of the spot helps too. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.

Working with your venue

Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

Organising a club, school or community event in HP12? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Tell us about the event and we’ll take it from there.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:

  • A short walk from the party
  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A route in without tight gates or low branches

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

The menu, dish by dish

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.

Pie and chips

For a heartier option, there is pie and chips.
