What a fish and chip van costs
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- The length of service
- Any minimum charge
- How many people are eating
- How far we travel
Distance and any road charges make a difference, so tell us exactly where your wedding is.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it helps to tell us:
- Anything awkward about the way in
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- A picture of where the van would go
- Rough numbers for adults and children
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: send us your details through our quote form.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
