What a fish and chip van costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The length of service
- Numbers
- Any minimum charge
- How far we travel
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A short service and a long afternoon’s trading are very different bookings. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Dietary needs, with numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Each quote is put together for your wedding. Start with your date, and we will confirm whether we are available that day.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

Welling station, in East Wickham itself.
Can the van park in Shoulder of Mutton Green?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What do we need to supply?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

Proper fish and chips, plus sausage or pie and chips. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
