Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Staggering groups helps a lot.
The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it is served. In Framfield, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:50pm and 7:05pm; for winter visits, choose lunchtime.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.
How to prepare
- Ensure the van can get in
- Confirm the van is allowed on site
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park

Framfield questions
Could you trade in Hempstead Meadow?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
How far is Framfield from London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
Is there something for children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Can you park at the home?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
Can portions be smaller?
Tell us what you need and we’ll plan portion sizes with your team.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Framfield?
A themed afternoon with a van feels like a day out. Cost depends on numbers, menu and service time, along with distance and access to the site. Every booking gets its own quote.
Why Framfield hosts choose us
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy
- Rain does not stop the fryers
- No kitchen needed
- Fish and chips fried fresh on site
Can’t we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.

Prices and what affects them
There’s nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The length of service
- How many people are eating
- Cod, haddock or both
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
