Everything is cooked as people come up, so the last person served gets food as hot as the first. Typical bookings include summer staff parties and lunch for site crews, with haddock and chips, cod and chips and pie and chips.
Around Billingshurst, teams work at farms, workshops and units. A chip van suits all of them. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Ordering takeaway for a whole site is slow and the food arrives cold. A van fries on the spot. Dates make a difference: summer Saturdays and December Fridays are the busiest days of the year. Ask about your date early.
Why book with us
- All the chip-shop extras
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Something for staff to gather round
- No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up
How it works
Nothing gathers a crowd like the smell of fish and chips. Each piece of fish is battered and fried to order, and chips are fried in batches through service. Summer events after work in Billingshurst have light until about 9:20pm; in late May, sunset is around 8:50pm.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- You hear back on the date and the price.
- We agree exactly where the van parks, and how it gets in.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- The pitch is left tidy when we go.
Before we arrive
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Whether a minimum applies
- How easy the site is to reach
- Distance and any road charges
- How long we serve
Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.

To speed things up, tell us:
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Where the event is
- Where the van would park
- Anything awkward about the way in
To get a price, use our quote form. Tell us about your staff event in Billingshurst, and we will check the date and send a price.
Diets, allergies and planning
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Agree the van’s spot with facilities

- Confirm allergies by email

DIY versus a fish and chip van
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
