Old Shoreham questions
How far is Old Shoreham from London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Can you cater for allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Where will the van park?
On a level spot in the car park or drive, clear of emergency access.
Who clears up?
The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for residents are worth planning.
Is there something for children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Let us know numbers, and we will plan for them.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
Can the van come to Old Shoreham?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Old Shoreham and the rest of West Sussex. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
How we price a fish and chip van visit
The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:
- Travel, tolls and road charges
- The number of meals
- Peak dates such as summer Saturdays
- Cod, haddock or both
Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is often good value, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.
Details that help
You don’t need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Where the event is
- Allergies and diets you know about
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Your date and serving time
We only need a few details to quote: the date, where the van would park, roughly how many people and when you’d like to eat. To send them, use our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Agree the plan with your kitchen and care team

- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
When everyone has eaten, we pack up.
A regular date gives everyone something to look forward to.
A closer look at the menu
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
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 generally simpler.
