What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain does not stop us. Residents will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. For a summer visit in West Barnham, 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.

Common questions in West Barnham
Can you serve near the sea around West Barnham?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Which station is closest to West Barnham?
West Barnham has its own station: Barnham station.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Does the batter contain gluten?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac residents in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
Where do you take the van?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.
Can families and staff eat too?
Yes, and families love joining in.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
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.
