Hollingbury: your questions answered
Is Hollingbury close to London?
Roughly 44 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What about events near the coast?
Yes, of course. Wind doesn’t affect the fryers, but plan a sheltered spot for the queue.
Do you do customer events and open days?
Yes. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
Can the van park on grass?
It depends on the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.
How quickly can you serve everyone?
That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Tell us your numbers and how long you have for food, and we’ll plan to keep the queue moving.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will tell you what’s in each item.
How much space do you need?
Level, firm ground the van can reach, near your staff, with room for a queue at the hatch. Tell us about gates, lanes and soft ground.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It’s the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it is what most people in the south ask for. It’s battered and fried to order.

What happens on the day

Lunchtime bookings in Hollingbury are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
