Where the van can park in Hammerpot
No two venues are the same, so we will ask about yours when you get in touch. In general, we need:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- A clear area by the serving hatch
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

What affects the price in Hammerpot
These are the factors that matter most:
- Distance and any road charges
- The minimum booking
- Parking and the way in
- The day of the week
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. Your quote spells it all out.
What we need to know
Here’s what makes a quick, accurate quote possible:
- Where the event is
- Anything awkward about the way in
- Roughly how many people, including children
- Allergies and diets you know about
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we will firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: send us your details through our quote form.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For bigger numbers, a van makes life easier, and you get to enjoy the day.
Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
With a barbecue, somebody ends up at the grill. With a van, nobody from the team has to cook. Got a budget? Let us know, and we’ll suggest a menu and timing to match. Keeping the menu short is typically the best value.
What you get with us
- Everything cooked to order at your event
- We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
- No surprises in your quote
- The queue at the hatch gets people talking

Common questions in Hammerpot
Is Hammerpot too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
How far is Hammerpot from London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can coeliacs eat the battered fish?
No, not as standard: batter is generally made with wheat flour. Let us know and we’ll tell you what we can do before you book.
How soon do we need to book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
What’s on the menu?
Proper fish and chips, with sausages and pies for anyone who doesn’t want fish. The sides are mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy.
What happens if it rains?
The weather doesn’t stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including West Sussex. Find your area.
