What a fish and chip van costs
These are the factors that matter most:
- Any minimum charge
- The menu and how many choices
- Distance and any road charges
- Parking and the way in
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. We will send you a quote.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Expected numbers
- The spot you have in mind for the van
- A picture of where the van would go
- Dietary needs, with numbers
Still finalising the details? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. To start, fill in our quote form.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Include the band, photographer and venue staff
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
- Have a back-up for guests with special diets
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
Most couples serve evening food between about 8pm and 9:30pm, once the first dance is done.
A little sign by the van tells guests what’s on.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch when you’re ready to eat. In Terriers, evening wedding food frequently coincides with dusk: sunset is around 8:55pm in late May, 9:25pm at midsummer and 7:05pm in late September. Festoon lights by the van look lovely in the photos.
