Christmas party fish and chips in Bepton, fried fresh

December dates book up early, so ask as soon as you know yours. On the menu are sausage and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips, and typical bookings are for office Christmas parties and warehouse and depot Christmas lunches.

Near Bepton, country lanes are dark in winter, so tell us about the route and lighting at the spot. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Common questions in Bepton

Is Bepton close to London?

About 48 miles from central London.

Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

Do you clear up afterwards?

The pitch is left as we found it. Bins for guests are worth planning.

What do we need to supply?

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

Can you cater for allergies?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will give you the allergen information.

When should we book for December?

As early as possible. December weekends and Fridays are the first to go.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We cook inside the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.

What happens if it rains?

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

Prices and what affects them

We will give you a clear quote. What affects it most:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • How long we serve
  • The number of meals
  • Travel, tolls and road charges

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, as there is no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

Getting an accurate quote

Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • The venue or postcode

The quickest way to a quote is to fill in our quote form. Tell us about your Christmas party in Bepton, and we’ll check the date and send a price.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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 usually simpler.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

A chip van compared with other options

Takeaway for a whole office arrives late and cold. The van fries on site. Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We’ll tell you up front.

  • A quote that spells everything out

How it works

A typical booking goes like this: the van arrives and we set up, the fryers heat up, and we serve hot from the hatch at the agreed time. An afternoon Christmas party in Bepton can start in daylight and finish in the dark, with sunset about 4:00pm, so put the van where there is good light.

  1. We start with a few details about your Christmas party.
  2. We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
  4. We cook to order on the day for your guests.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Plan where the queue will stand
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van

Ask for a quote

Choosing a fish and chip van

Curry sauce

Some people will not eat chips without curry sauce and it’s on the menu.

Gravy

Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Hot drinks alongside make it even better.
