The menu, dish by dish
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is the favourite in much of the south. It is battered and fried to order, so it’s crisp when it reaches you.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
How our Christmas party fish and chips works in Adversane
We plan winter events around the dark and the weather: a lit, sheltered spot, and a quick, organised service. We serve cod and chips, sausage and chips and pie and chips, and we’re regularly asked to cater warehouse and depot Christmas lunches and office Christmas parties.
In a small place like Adversane, December lanes are dark, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.

Adversane: your questions answered
Is Adversane close to London?
Roughly 38 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Adversane too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you take everything away?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
Do you have allergen information?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Can the van park on the street?
Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Ask your council early.
How far ahead should we book?
Early, particularly for summer Saturdays and Christmas party Fridays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
When should we book for December?
Very early. Fridays in December book up first.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
