A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Is a fish and chip van right for your Christmas party?

Venue Christmas packages add up. A van in the car park keeps it simple. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

Should I sort the food myself?

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 typically simpler.

Frying for a crowd at home isn’t a good idea: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Planning a Christmas party in Milton Street

Milton Street is about 4 miles north-east of Seaford, in East Sussex. Anywhere in BN26, we can bring the van to you. We take the van to 289 places across East Sussex, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 13 miles away.

A winter fair at a school like Alfriston School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Train travellers will want to know that the nearest station is Berwick (Sussex) station, about 1.8 miles north. Milton Street is within about 2 miles of the South Downs National Park; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning. The coast is within about 5 miles of Milton Street, and winter sea winds can be bitter.

We serve Christmas parties across the BN26 postcode area. Neighbouring places where we serve Christmas parties include Wilmington (1 mile north-east), Winton (1 mile west), Alfriston (1 mile south-west), Lullington (1 mile south-west) and Dukes Green (1 mile south-west).

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a business, tell us how you’d like to handle the booking and payment, and we’ll talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.

Hosting at home? Send us a picture of the drive or the spot and the way in, and we’ll tell you honestly whether it works.

The process

Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Sunset in Milton Street in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the van and the queue. Lunchtime is the brightest slot in December.

  1. It starts with your date, site and numbers.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
  4. We cook to order and serve from the hatch on time.
  5. We clear our spot and head off.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Arrange somewhere dry for the queue

How to get a price

We only need a few details to quote: date, address, numbers and serving time. You can use our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

Most events have a few guests with dietary needs. To plan for them:

  • Plan an alternative for anyone we cannot cater for
  • Plan lighting near the hatch
  • Let us know about coeliac disease
  • Think about a gazebo or covered doorway

We park somewhere lit and get the fryers hot.

Hot drinks alongside make it even better.

FAQs for Milton Street

How far is Milton Street from London?

About 49 miles from central London.

Can the van go 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 work to whatever the site needs.

Can you park on the road outside?

Only where it’s legal to park, or with a council parking suspension or road closure. Check with your council first.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and send a picture if you can.

What food do you serve?

Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.

Is the fish gluten-free?

Our battered fish contains gluten, because standard batter uses wheat flour. Tell us about coeliac guests when you enquire, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.

Will the weather be a problem?

The van copes fine. Guests appreciate cover and a short walk.

Do we need to provide equipment?

We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.

  • Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
  • Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
  • The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
  • Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
