Looking after everyone
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. We suggest:
- Tell us exactly when each group can eat
- Collect allergies in advance
- Put allergy details in writing
- Check with facilities where the van can park
When service is finished, we pack up.
Cover near the van keeps the queue dry.
What happens on the day
Service is quick: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. For a staff lunch in Lancing, daylight is not an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with your date, site, numbers and shifts.
- We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
- Parking and arrival are agreed with your facilities team.
- We serve hot from the hatch through your break or shifts.
- We clear up and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive

Lancing: your questions answered
Could you trade in Brooklands Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council. Check with them first.
Which station is closest to Lancing?
Lancing station, in Lancing itself.
Do you bring everything you need?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Where can the van park?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your site’s list, and we’ll go through it with you.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What do we need to supply?
Tell us what’s available at the site in your enquiry, and we will say what we need.
Is the food cooked at the event?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it’s crisp.
