FAQs for Farlington
What’s the nearest station to Farlington?
The closest is Cosham station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
What about events near the coast?
Yes. The cooking is inside the van, so wind does not affect it, but the queue will want shelter.
Do you bring everything you need?
Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, with a clear way in. Send us a photo if you are not sure.
Do you have documents for our site?
Tell us what your site needs when you enquire, and we’ll go through it with you.
Who clears up?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
How do you handle allergies?
We provide allergen information for everything we serve. Fish and gluten are the main ones in battered fish. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Taking the team out for a meal means booking, travel and time away from site. A van comes to you. If you have a budget in mind, tell us, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is generally the best value.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is generally the easier option.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van cooks in front of your staff instead.
- 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
