Which station is closest to Wellbrook?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.

Before you choose a spot
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way. Here’s what we look for:
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
- Confirmation that the van can park there
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Park the van close to the door.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
What affects the price in Wellbrook
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- How far we travel
- Service time
- Whether a minimum applies
- The menu and how many choices
Comparing vans? Look at what each quote includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.
Details that help
To check availability and price, we need:
- A picture of where the van would go
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Allergies and diets you know about
Every quote is worked out for your event. Start with your date, and we’ll check availability right away.
About the food
Gravy
A pot of gravy turns chips into comfort food.
Curry sauce
The chip shop’s own curry sauce is mild and a little sweet, great with chips and sausages.
Christmas parties in Wellbrook: local tips
Wellbrook is about 4 miles south-east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. Tell us where your Christmas party in Wellbrook will be, and we’ll plan the route and the parking spot before the day. We take the van to all 289 towns and villages in East Sussex. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 21 miles away.
If a church like Church of St. Dunstan is running a Christmas fair, a chip van is a welcome sight on a cold evening. A winter fair at a school like Mayfield Church of England Primary School gets dark early, so hot food from a van is popular. Wellbrook is within about a mile of the High Weald National Landscape; in winter, rural routes need a bit more planning.
