Hangleton: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Hangleton?
The closest is Portslade station, roughly 1 mile away.
Can you serve near the sea around Hangleton?
Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Can you come to our office Christmas party?
Yes. Tell us the date, site and numbers as early as you can.
When should we eat?
Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
Do we need to provide equipment?
Everything is cooked in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Do you take everything away?
We pack up and leave the pitch tidy when service is finished. Let us know about bins for guests.
When should we book for December?
As soon as you have a date, especially for a Friday.
Can you serve in the cold?
We cook inside the van, so the weather doesn’t stop us. Keep the van close to the door.

See how we price and our guide to van hire costs.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Frying for a crowd at home is not a good idea: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties don’t mix. A van is designed for exactly this.
How the day works
There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your Christmas party. The frying and serving are down to us. By about 3:55pm in late December, it is dark in Hangleton; choose a lit spot near the door for the van, and keep the walk short.
- First, tell us about your Christmas party.
- We check the date and where the van will park, then send a quote.
- We agree timings, access and the parking spot.
- We cook to order on the day for your guests.
- We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.
