Common questions in Brighton and Hove
What about events near the coast?
Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Who clears up?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for residents.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
Often, 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.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes. Children generally love sausage and chips. Tell us how many are coming.
Do you come to Brighton and Hove?
Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Brighton and Hove is within our area and the rest of Brighton and Hove. For a quote, use our quote form.

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and it’s a favourite with children.
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, perfect with chips or a sausage.
Takeaway run or book a van?
You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Space, access and the venue
Every site is different, so we’ll ask about yours when you get in touch. Generally, we look for:
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
- A level parking spot near the entrance
- With the serving side away from windows
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
