FAQs for Telscombe Cliffs
Do you come to venues in the South Downs National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to Telscombe Cliffs?
Newhaven Town station, about 2.9 miles east of the centre.
How much does a fish and chip van for your Christmas party cost in Telscombe Cliffs?
We quote for each booking, so the price fits what you need. Give us your date, numbers and serving time and we will reply with a price.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
Do you do work Christmas parties?
Yes, if there’s a suitable spot for the van and the site allows it.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
Standard batter is made with wheat flour, so battered fish contains gluten. Let us know about coeliac guests in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible.
What food do you serve?
Fish and chips, of course, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What do you bring?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You provide a suitable spot and permission to park.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
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. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
