DIY versus a fish and chip van
Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
Business events near Colworth
Colworth is about 2 miles north of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Bookings in Colworth come in all shapes and sizes, but the plan is always the same: a level spot for the van, a time to eat and food fried to order. We serve all 371 towns and villages in West Sussex. Our bookings stretch from Colworth to Brighton (25 miles away).
Within reach of Colworth are historic houses such as Goodwood House (4 miles north-west).

Details that help
You do not need everything decided to ask for a quote, but it helps to know:
- Your date and serving time
- How to get in: gates, lanes and ground
- A picture of where the van would go
- The venue or postcode
Send us the date, the address or PO20 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. To get started, fill in our quote form.
What the van needs
Plenty of places work for the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
On the menu in Colworth
- Pie and chips
- Cod and chips
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
- Haddock and chips
- Staff lunches
A closer look at the menu
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it is on the menu.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
For a thank-you that lands, a chip van is hard to beat. There is no one-size-fits-all price for a fish and chip van. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. We set everything out in your quote.
