DIY versus a fish and chip van
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
Why choose a fish and chip van in Argos Hill?
For something other than turkey, a chip van is hard to beat in Argos Hill. The date matters too: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Why book with us
- A menu almost everyone likes
- Nothing for you to cook or clear
- Quick service from the hatch
- The classic sides: peas, curry sauce and gravy

Christmas parties in Argos Hill: local tips
Argos Hill is about 3 miles east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. From the centre of Argos Hill to the outskirts, we offer the same service: fish and chips fried to order, served hot and quoted clearly. Argos Hill is one of 289 places in East Sussex where we bring the van. We serve events right across the region, from Argos Hill to Brighton (21 miles away).
Christmas fairs at a church such as The Parish Church of St Denys can book the van as a hot-food stall. If you’re organising a Christmas fair for a school like Rotherfield Primary School, hot fish and chips goes down well. Argos Hill is within about 2 miles of the High Weald National Landscape; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.
For Christmas parties in TN6, we just need to know where the van can park. Nearby, we also serve Christmas parties in High Cross (1 mile west), Town Row (1 mile north), Rotherfield (1 mile north-west), Woolbridge (1 mile south) and Mayfield (1 mile south-east). Further out, we also take the van to Lewes (15 miles south-west), Hailsham (12 miles south), Crowborough (3 miles west), Uckfield (8 miles south-west), Polegate (15 miles south) and South Malling (15 miles south-west).
A little further out are Crowborough War Memorial Hospital (3.7 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Crowborough Country Park.
- Nearby schools include Jameah Islameah School (1.3 miles north)
The process
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Argos Hill in late December is about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. A lunchtime party is the only one served in good daylight.

- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Argos Hill: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Argos Hill?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and parking.
Which station is closest to Argos Hill?
The closest is Crowborough station, roughly 2.3 miles away.
How early do Christmas dates go?
As early as possible. Fridays in December book up first.
Can you park on the road outside?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
How long are you on site?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.

- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
