Common questions in New Copse
Is New Copse 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.
Is New Copse close to London?
About 49 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Do you do Christmas markets?
Yes, and hot food goes down well in December. Send us the details.
Where do you take the van?
London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including New Copse.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. We cook inside the van, so it’s fried on the spot, rather than made in advance.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we will plan service around it.
What if we only have street parking?
Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Check with your council first.
When should we eat?
At the time you choose. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Book as early as possible for December
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
- Confirm allergies by email
- Have a back-up for special diets
When service is finished, we pack up.
Crackers on the tables finish it off.
Organising for someone else?
For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.
