Planning an event in Bepton?

Planning for dietary needs

A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Try these:

  • Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
  • Keep the van clear of emergency access
  • Plan how food reaches residents indoors
  • Involve the kitchen and care team early

Families can join in, with numbers agreed in advance.

A seaside theme with bunting adds to the fun.

Bepton questions

Is Bepton close to London?

About 48 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Can the van go to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What do you bring?

The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.

Is there something for children?

Of course. Children normally love sausage and chips. Include children in your numbers.

Is grass a problem?

Frequently, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so plan a back-up spot.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, West Sussex included. Find your area.

What if we only have street parking?

It depends on the road. Off-road parking is usually simpler; if it has to be the street, check with the council.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Organising a club, school or community event in Bepton? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

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.

Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A trip out to a restaurant is hard for many residents. The van comes to the home. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest how to make it work. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.

Our booking checklist

The menu, dish by dish

Mushy peas

No fish and chips is complete without mushy peas for many people.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

The process

You will know we’re ready when the smell of frying drifts over. After that, it is a steady flow to the hatch. For a summer visit in Bepton, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

How to prepare

  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
  • Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
