How to compare vans

Your questions about a fish and chip van visit in Pevensey Bay

Can you serve near the sea around Pevensey Bay?

Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.

What’s the nearest station to Pevensey Bay?

Pevensey Bay station, about 0.5 miles north-west of the centre.

How quickly can you serve everyone?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan to keep the queue moving.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

Do you clear up afterwards?

We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for residents.

Can you serve children?

Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll include them in the plan.

Is there a non-fish option?

There is: sausage and chips or pie and chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

Which areas do you serve?

We cover London and the South East, including East Sussex. See all areas.
