Christmas party fish and chips in Pevensey, fried fresh

A fish and chip van in the car park or outside the venue gives everyone a hot meal, without anyone leaving site. On the menu are pie and chips, sausage and chips and gravy, and we’re often booked for festive open days and lights switch-on events.

In a small place like Pevensey, December lanes are dark, so let us know about access and lighting. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll be straight with you about what we can do before booking.

Diets, allergies and planning

Nearly every event has some special diets. To plan for them:

  • Ask about allergies on the party invitation
  • Arrange something for anyone with needs we can’t meet
  • December Fridays go first: book early
  • Send allergies to us in writing

Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.

A charity collection for a local food bank is a nice touch.

Questions from Pevensey

What’s the nearest station to Pevensey?

Pevensey Bay station, in Pevensey itself.

Can you serve near the sea around Pevensey?

Yes. Wind does not affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

What does the van need?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. Send us a picture if you’re not sure.

What if it is raining or freezing?

The fryers are inside the van, so we carry on. Keep the van close to the door.

Do you do Christmas markets?

Yes. Send us the event details and the pitch information.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

Sausage and chips and pie and chips are on the menu. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we will be honest about what’s possible.

What time should the van serve at a Christmas party?

Whenever suits your party. Remember it is dark by about 4pm in December.

About the food

Gravy

Chips and gravy is a favourite in the north and the Midlands, and it is lovely with a pie.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet

A big takeaway order rarely arrives hot. A van cooks on the spot. The date matters too: peak summer weekends and Christmas party Fridays book up first. Ask about your date early.

The process

There’s 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 Pevensey; choose a lit spot near the door for the van.

  1. It starts with your date, site and numbers.
  2. We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
  3. Arrival time and a well-lit spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up and leave you to the party.

Getting ready for the day

  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
  • Ensure the van can get in
  • Name one person we can call on the day

Ask for a quote

Still finalising the details? That is fine: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will quote on that. To start, send us your details through our quote form.

Pevensey is about 3 miles north-east of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Give us the address of your Christmas party in Pevensey, and we’ll plan access and set-up before the day. Pevensey is one of 289 towns and villages in East Sussex we cover. Our bookings stretch from Pevensey to Brighton (20 miles away).

PTA Christmas fairs, for a school such as Pevensey and Westham CofE Primary School, suit a chip van. Train travellers will want to know that Pevensey Bay station is in Pevensey itself. The South Downs National Park is within about 8 miles of Pevensey, where winter lanes can be dark and narrow, so tell us about the route. With the sea within about 5 miles, December breezes can be cold, so plan a sheltered spot for the queue.

Wherever your Christmas party is in BN24, we can fry fresh for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Your Christmas party could be at a house on High Street, Church Lane and Bridge End, wherever the van can park.

For planners, venues and organisers

Hosting at home? Send a picture of where the van would park, and we will let you know if the van will fit.

If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.

Prices and what affects them

These are the factors that matter most:

  • The menu and how many choices
  • Numbers
  • The day of the week
  • Access and parking

A chip van often compares well with a plated meal, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. Ask us for a quote.

What to tell us

To speed things up, tell us:

  • Rough numbers for adults and children
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The address or venue name

Send us the date, the address or BN24 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and you’ll get a clear price. To get started, fill in our quote form.

Space, access and the venue

A good parking spot makes the whole thing easier. We need:

  • A lit spot if service runs after dark
  • A spot near your guests
  • Access wide and high enough for the van

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
