Christmas party fish and chips in South Bersted, fried fresh
December bookings are planned for the dark and the cold: a well-lit spot for the van and the queue, and service timed so people aren’t outside for long. For depot Christmas treats and festive family gatherings, we will put together a menu of pie and chips, cod and chips and curry sauce.
At a festive party in South Bersted, the van on the drive goes down well. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

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.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
South Bersted questions
Which station is closest to South Bersted?
South Bersted has its own station: Bognor Regis station.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. The cooking is inside the van, so wind doesn’t affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can you cook in the rain?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Can the van come to our work Christmas do?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
Do you cover South Bersted?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and South Bersted is within our area. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who does not want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes. Tell us the date and pitch.
How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we are there in good time before you want to eat. It gets dark in South Bersted by about 4:00pm at Christmas; park the van where there’s good light, and keep the walk short.
- It starts with your date, site and numbers.
- We check access and lighting at the spot and send a price.
- We plan a lit, sheltered spot for the van and queue.
- On the day we set up and fry fresh at the agreed time.
- We clear our spot and head off.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Name one person we can call on the day

Planning help
Allergies and dietary needs
Dietary needs are easiest to plan with some notice. We suggest:
- Think about a gazebo or covered doorway
- Put allergy details in writing
- Ask about your date in the autumn, or earlier
- Tell us about coeliac guests specifically
Serving early, before the drinks flow, is frequently wise.
Hot drinks alongside make it even better.

Organising for someone else?
